Cradle of Filth - Cthulhu Dawn lyrics

Cthulhu dawn

Spatter the stars

Douse their luminosity

With our amniotic retch

Promulgating the birth

Of another Hell on Earth

Shadows gather poisoned henna for the flesh

A necrotic cattle brand

The hissing downfall pentagram

Carven deep upon the church doors of the damned

But no Passover is planned

A great renewal growls at hand

And only when they're running

Will they come to understand...

So ends the pitiful reign of Man

When the moon exhales

Behind a veil

Of widowhood and clouds

On a Biblical scale

We raise the stakes

To silhouette the impaled

Crowds...

Within this kissed disembowel arena

A broken seal on an ancient curse

Unleashes beasts from the seismic breach

With lightning reach and genocidal thirst

Mountains of archaos theories

In collision as at planetary dawn

Apocalypse's razorbacks

Beat wings on glass as thunder cracks

Unfurled across a world hurled to the black

Cthulhu dawn

Shatter the glass house

Wherein spirits breathe out

Halitosis of the soul

From a recking abscess

Plague of far righteousness

All fates hang in the balance

Mocking crucified dolls

An inquisition outs

When the Sun goes out our powers

Will extend throughout Heaven like Asphodel

As they have for countless lustrum

In dark Midian accustoned

To burning effigies of our enemies well

So begins the sibilant world Death knell...

When a corpse wind howls

And awakes from drowse

The scheming dead freed

Of gossamer shrouds

We gorgonise eyes

Of the storm aroused

Red...

Blinding time

All lines dine on this instance

A melting spool of beggar, negative frames

The skies teem alive, to watch die

Mankind hauled to fable in vast tenement graves...

Cthulhu dawn

Cthulhu dawn

Cthulhu dawn
