THYESTEAN FEAST LYRICS

1. Diarya

[Instrumental]

2. White Widow

Skins of mask are flayed and torn
Abrasions and scars hide face forlorn
Borrowed sunshine seems profane
Sorrow drains frozen emotions

Pale feathers eluding, soothing
Portraits of grief abjured, slayed
All your memories, platitudes chained
Scorches of grace never heal

Denial of rancor my angel
calls forth dearth of reason.
Gilded path to mind's eye damnation
Pure white chemical paradise

Through dark colonnades, ruins of feelings
Your kindred pain, perifidous guide
Theatre of mortals, yearn to know
White widow

Dreams that sought graven image
Now they praise the christ of euphoria
Stabbed cygnet with stained wings
White widow

Emotion turmoil, the war in us
Parasite touch brings warmth of lust
Wounds of soul smile crimson within
Light lingers, as the rapture grows dim

Treason in kingdoms of bereaved pathos
Feed the flames!
With bonds of sacred love we burn
Bleed for flames!

3. The Fall Of Astraea

Kneel,
before the sunset of epoch
Eve of omens gathers me
to weep the fall of Astraea

Seals,
of shaped dogmas famish
misery forges stream anthems,
lies of tortured patriarch

Seek,
Zeaphon seek and always find
that prophecy forms circle
and diviner has forked tongue

So falleth the morning spear
these lunar mantras of heresy,
whispered in costumes of day
to merge and the invade.
Nightfall summons vigil
so dies the oath, and oblivion
Vanished pyres of midnight,
the fall of Astraea

Bleed,
Gabriel bleed and always scream
all thy archlies sweet
never belived and yet obeyed

Sleep,
Ithuriel sleep and always dream
fabled utopia of grace
nevermore

4. Treason

Slumber nailed fear
Retribution reach me
Deceive leashed cross
Traitor

Church breeds witchery
Sorcerers ravage dance
Come and kiss his throne
Betrayer

Trace the liturgy
Wallow in fragile lies
when crown bares my thorns
reach for me

How luster of sainted viper
seduces thy daughters with ease
Trace the liturgy

Inbred truth so hollow
Be the one above trinity
Accuser

Ascend through immortal blood
Revere my reign with screams
Patricide
