Cradle of Filth - The Black Goddess Rises lyrics
Thee I invoke, bornless one<br>All woman, pure predator<br>Wherein conspiracy and impulse dwell<br>Like a seething fall from grace<br><br>Thee I worship...<br><br>Thou art darkest gabrielle<br>No church shall bar our path<br>Seductive evil drink your fill<br>Of the bleeding christ in your arms<br><br>You are in my dreams<br>The darkness in my eyes<br>The rapture in my screams<br>Black goddess arise<br><br>Nothing will keep us apart<br>We could kill them all<br>If our desire tore free<br>Our union is one, sweet, sinful eve<br><br>And the night draws in beside her<br>As we embrace the dark side by side<br>I pour my soul to those eyes full of fire<br>To harvest the seed ploughed inside her<br><br>Archangel, snare the flesh<br>Suck dry the ebbing wound<br>Leave them lifeless and broken<br>My beloved...<br><br>Oh, how I craved for you<br>You so pure and other-worldly with your scent of winter<br>Am I to bleed myself dry to see your delight? <br><br>And the fear retreats forever<br>(come to me...black goddess arise)<br>When my secrets are buried in thine<br>(come to me...black goddess arise)<br>Under seven stars we came together<br>(come to me...black goddess arise)<br>To plot the new age's decline<br>(come to me...arise!)<br><br>Ishtar my queen<br>Come forth to me<br>And help me seize<br>My future from the house of death<br><br>That in the release of immortality<br>I should slay their fucking nazarene<br>Ah...the lies...the jew...i kill for you<br><br>Hidden lusts will break the gates and swarm<br>As love secretes the thrill for war<br>The virgin raped shall seek to whore<br>She-wolf bare your snarling jaw<br><br>'caught in thy net of shadows,<br>What dreams hast thou to show? <br>Who treads the silent meadows,<br>To worship thee below?
