Marrow Of The King

from Child Of Sorcery by Swan Messiah

lyrics

Transmutate the low ground for the highSupplicate the ground to deify - shards above self
Bending force of will to raise the vesselRarest forms of apparitions bleed - bleed out
The strange illumination of the wraithBeams they pierce the crust of lower faith - lower faith
Traverse the eminence of vital fleshA sacramental feast of autumn's gifts
We dine upon the marrow of the kingPrepare the ground for winter's worshipping
The fingers rise while toes root in the groundA visionary fool thus drowned Striking down the bleedersThe strangulating fingersThe thread it disappears beyond the bones
Their fingernails splitThe wraith it thus commitsThe thorns of torture thread beneath the skin
Striking down the bleedersThe strangulating fingersThe thread it disappears beyond the bones
Their fingernails splitThe wraith it thus commitsThe thorns of torture thread beneath the skin
My skin it melts and falls from every limbTo cook upon the coals my shadow lurking twinThe stench and smoke to raise my shadow upTo verdant hills beyond the mystic veil
