8. Casus Luciferi
1. Devil's Blood
Ageless, eternal in grace
Behold the snake of temptation!
Eyes gleaming with wisdom,
tongues telling of truths inversed
I have swallowed the hanged man's semen
with necrophageous delight
and let the Devil enter
with all his might
And in unbearable shame, enlighted by your fathomless dark,
I kneel unto thee, father, I am opened!
Let your daggers pierce through and their poisonous grace be unleashed
through these hungering veins
The impurest of blood, the greatest of pains!!!
The Devil's blood,
the curse of salvation,
the odious essence
of His holy revelation
It floats from the garden of Eden
in malevolent grace
The Devil's blood,
through the pentagram's maze
To open the gates to where deformations form,
to unearthly mysteries and fire
From stigmatized wounds now the river of gnosis runs free,
in the glorious light of the five point star
Darkness, starlight in eyes
The path reveals so clear now!
I drink my own blood yet the taste is not mine
I behold my reflection yet noone stares back
Driven by a lifeless hunger
Must have it stilled
Drop by drop, curse by curse,
until all three cups are filled
This soul prayeth not for victory, but for loss
This body kneeleth not in vain, but in blood
These eyes seeth not nil, but truth
These words are not spoken by me, but through
The Devil's blood,
the curse of salvation,
the odious essence
of His holy revelation
From the tongues of the serpent
into chalices three,
the Devil's blood
runneth through me!
2. Black Salvation
Visions of hornshaped shadows
and a burning firmament black
Trembling in the glory of a star
delightfully glowing with evil
Ten signs to spawn
a thousand of children
and to be given strength
each time a heart it beats
For they gave birth to the sun and the moon
to cast shadows upon life
And to burn the slaves that in madness gaze
with scorn from serpent eyes
Just as cancerous cocaine,
deep in the veins of christ,
the malignant curse divine
floats within you all...
you all!
May the holy light of Satan's might
burn my eyes!
This filth is not worth the glance...
Shining steel with Devil's seal,
cut my flesh!
Let them lick the blood,
in the ashes of my fallen temple
And just as cancerous cocaine,
deep in the veins of christ,
the malignant curse divine
floats within you all
And the bonds are burning
along with His eyes
Forever to brand the heart of god
Forever... spearing cosmos' core!
For it was that light
that branded the Devil's mark
into my flesh,
my soul and my heart
Never to close these eyes,
never to still this thirst
High on the cross of sophia,
through black salvation I hang cursed
3. Opus Dei (The Morbid Angel)
And all that is Holy, Holy shall be:
Let the light bless and
let these words proclaim the blessing;
let the seal be broken and let the light prevail;
let the earth be scorched and let the light prevail;
let the wrath cleanse the world from opposition...
...and let heaven spew brimstone on sin!
And all that is Holy, Holy shall be:
Let alive the word's proclamation
Let the laws of The Books be the laws of the Earth;
let humanity be sin and let denial be bliss;
let the wars cleanse the world and
let their fear show their path
Let the Light reign over Man and beast
Let the Lord strike the sinners with plague
Let the Lord, our God, reign for eternity;
and all that is Holy, Holy shall be...
For the carnal and earthly mouths of christ
he has made blind and as vices they are
Let their words and acts be spears and be chains
tormenting the weeping face of their god
From the valley of Sodom to the hill of Harmageddon;
behold the holocaust clouds and heed the trumpet's roar!
A Charge more forceful than ever witnessed
May the Angels of Heaven shed the blood of Man
Behold, the new and true Gospel,
the words come from the Lord himself;
Redemption through death!
Salvation through fire!
And all that is Holy, Holy shall be:
Let the light bless and
let these words proclaim the blessing
Let the seal be broken and let the light prevail;
let the earth be scorched and let the light prevail;
let the wrath cleanse the world from opposition...
...and let heaven spew brimstone on sin!
Let the prophets of double voices free
and in Gehinnom's splendour eternally
let them BURN for their true majesty;
and all that is Holy, Holy shall be!!!
4. Puzzles ov Flesh
Blinded soul, vomit faith,
fingers reaching deep
Senses made dogmas
and the Phoenix rises...
None is denial,
I am not one of mine
His words unlocked
Backwards, reforming what won't reflect
Assembling puzzles ov flesh
Perfect... yet unknown!
Sigils encarved, the burning stench reveals frustration
None could deny Him!
Carrying the voids of those eyes...
None is denial
I am not one of I
My words unlocked
It reveals through the fall
Staring at the abyss, getting further
through mirrors...
Flesh & mind complete, in need for substance!
You are denied
You are not one of He
Your words are locked
5. I Am the Earth
He lives through me
All of what I am
The needle of hamartia
injected in the flesh of man
With the soul of a carrion;
sleeping, yet awake
For underneath this skin
crawls Eden's cursed snake
Hic est draco caudam suam devorans!
You may have felt its cold
caressing down your spine
Gently yet with strength,
and with a morbid touch
For its real shape is a razor
smeared with the Devil's seed,
and infected with its plague
are the scars from which I bleed
I am the earth,
chained to horns
Its ground is my flesh,
pierced by Holy thorns
I am the earth,
burning deep within
Its water is my blood,
blackened by my sins
Swallowed by His mystery
Lost within its maze
The bridges behind they burn
from the pyres of Hell's grace
One after another
the stars fade into black
He has called my name
There is no way back...
Pierced by His will
Trapped within His lair
My flesh shall be the sign
of that fires are to fear
For those who walk upon me
shall be punished for their turns
For I am the earth,
and within me the Devil burns!
I am the earth,
in the shadow of the Lord
A crucifix of flesh,
yet sinfully adored
I am the earth,
as your life with me does blend
For I am His truth;
the world without end...
The world without end.
6. The Golden Horns of Darash
All ysop burnt, all fruits are poisoned
Zaddik failed and Zebaoth lost
The lambs are banished, the temple is soiled
March on white ruin, infernal host
So come forth, Lord of the triple number!
Rise, oh trinity of DEATH, DEATH and DEATH!
Burn this vermin world in its most deep slumber!
And to all of Sheob, give the sulphur breath!
Blacken all their ghastly colours
and freeze to scorn their charity warmth
Smear our sin to their most pure innocence
and nail them all to the cross!!!
For they live to die, we die to live
Our beginning is their end
While they fall with twelve, we rise with seven
So wake the astral serpent by Thy pale hand!!!
All ysop burnt, all fruits are poisoned
Adonai failed and Elohim lost
The lambs are slaughtered, our temple shines golden
Crawl on your ruin, seraphic host...
And my tongue speaks ancient names,
forbidden psalms above the flames
My heart pumps but void into my veins,
and my pulse runs so slow, too slow for chains
For chains that tie me down to earth
For chains that keep up this organic curse
...for I see horns...
...golden horns...
...for I see horns...
...HORNS!!!!!!!...
7. From the Pulpits of Abomination
The demons astir within the ruined temples of our flesh
are no less real than those whose voices echo through the starless abyss
No less cruel their nature, no less harmful their intent
Of sinful seed, of soiled womb, circling the five wings throughout eternities
And in a tomb beneath the pyramid of faith, as a crown lain at their feet;
behold the pillaged and impure remains of a god who failed!
Guarded by the giant pillars to be moved by the Devil alone
For they are the stones of the throne of christ which He swallowed
and exhaled unto earth as his own!
ICHTHUS!
Thine gills art dried!
Iesous Christos Theou Uios Soter
Where there was heart shall be vertebra...
for your children have been led astray!
ICHTHUS!
Quench thine thirst with my urine
Warm as love it shall rinse through the salt in your lungs
For the thirst of the desert strangles all senses
Tempted art thou and noone can resist Him...
NONE!
For what is the worth of a godless prophet whose tongue since long has dried,
in completeness bereft from grace?
Through milleniums tormented by the eternal eye and its piercing vigilance
Doomed to fail, for what hope can you ignite in their forsaken hearts?
When in deluge thou art fallen, your scriptures are altered and your doctrine
rewritten in blood?
What unity in tribes long scattered?
What glory and hope in a cross that is shattered?
Hark! The mourning wails of defeat echo throughout centuries!
The horns of the Baphomet in the wounds of jesus thrice
An allegiance of flesh and steel, unto which titan altar we all kneel
Hark! The reversed words of Yahwe from the pulpits of abomination!
See him now possessed and reborn, the fallen messiah alight
At the burning crest of the serpent's spiral, smiling in confusion
Fear all ye faithful for no longer on his forehead a crown of thorns
In the shadow of the bloodstained cross christ has risen... with horns!
ICHTHUS!
Iniquity's mystery revealed!
Iesous Christos Theou Uios Soter
Where there was thorns shall be the horns of a goat,
for neither in life or in death are they absent!
ICHTHUS!
The greatest of creations laid to waste!
Malformed and depraved limbless nothingness son of a whore
Two nails in your hands for both father and son
and in the dirt of your feet piercing the holy spirit
8. Casus Luciferi
From the vaults below the desert-temple
to the throne among the stars
In the hearts of us, your children, oh divine luminary;
Thou shineth!
Like sunbeams penetrating the foundations of the earth
thine grace ignites the seeds of creation
And in our veins is stillness, as your shadows come to life,
for they are like whispers speaking of...
...death in heaven!
Behold the black cloud of corpselike birds
Their wings are on fire
And their song has turned backwards
A morbid cacophony singing of a new dawn...
Burn my flesh, thou light of lights!
Most eminent perfection, most magnificent of sights
Mark me with thee, stainless Ar!
Most real, so clear and bright they shine both eye and star
Descend upon the dead, black sky!
By a grace of just one glance they all will die
Pour the bitter wine of salvation into our blood!
And let our scars form rivers flooding the kingdom of their god
Let the immense gates of heaven open
Let the dawn of justice come
When a thousand pale and silenced faces
turn towards the sky,
to behold in fear and wonder how the firmanent turns dark
by the sound of a lonely trumpet calling
And countless birdlike carrions fall reeking from above,
embedded in a red glow telling of...
...A burning dawn!
For this sunrise shall not wake you by the foul light of christ,
but by Satan's fire burning in your eyes
And the thundering voice of a lion over the plains of man
shall proclaim the horned phoenix' final rise
For it is not rain that falls tonight from the black, ominous sky,
but sulphur tears from the last flock of birds
And the wind carries the smell of death, from the agony in their hearts,
as they fly in nameless fear towards...
Luciferion!
