A Murder Of Ravens In Fugue Lyrics
With revenge upon lifeGnathic and SapphicNeeds begged gendercideDelusions of Grandier denounced the revoltOf descrying cursed glass, disenchanted in vaultsEncircled by glyphs midst Her sin-sistered cultWith hangman's abandon She plied spiritworldsTo Archangels in bondageFrom light to night hurledCast down to the earth where torment would unfurl.......But soon,Her tarot provedHybrid rumours spread like tumoursWould accrueAnd blight Her starsTo better bitter truthsOf cold bloodbathsAs bodies roseIn rigid drovesTo haunt Her from theirShallow burials imposedWhen wolves exhumedTheir carthen wombsWhere heavy frosts had laboured longTo bare their woundsTo the depths of Her soul they pursuedWielding their poison they flewLike a murder of ravens in fugueAnd knowing their rapturesWould shatter Her dreamsShe clawed blackened books for damnation's reprieveBaneful cawed canons on amassed enemiesSo Hallow's EveAs She receivedLike Bellona to the ballThose enemiesFell-sisters heavedHer torturiesCross stained flagstonesTo Her carriage reined to fleeBut She knew She must brave the night throughThough fear crept a deathshead o'er the moonLike a murder of ravens in FugueFor each masked, jewelled gaze held dread purposeHorror froze painted eyes to cold staresAnd even Her danceIn the vast mirrors castLooked the ill of Her futureIf fate feasted there....
