lyrics

Oh, my divine catalyst
Mighty Empress of bliss
Enticing; a most conniving allure
Immediate arousal no god could assure

For the greatest debt eternally owed
The utmost pleasure is bestowed
The fearful seeds it sews
Bringeth us to new plateaus

The Altar dressed in ivory
Clothed with the blood of our kin
Ever to bask in our worship
Exalted as the cardinal sin

Provocateur of damnedest reveries
Doth arouse most perverse adulteries
Through the darkest halls
Above the highest walls
Once beyond man's reach
We arise to claim and breech

The utmost ecstatic state
Alloweth me to accept my fate
Amongst the wolves, higher power negated
I initiate the cataclysm most patiently awaited
Beloved aphrodisiac, distilled to perfection
Raise your glasses to unholy resurrection
I beseech thee, ingest to thy hearts content

Oblige to thy deepest desires without repent
From lips to blood we quake
With elation and commence the Lord of Demon's invocation

Our tabernacle, when lifted by chain
Burning so majestic
Like the lions mane
Perpetually beautiful and mysterious
Inculcates love of wisdom,
Never imperious
Oh Divine potion of acumen
Enrich me with my inner subhuman

Our tabernacle, when lifted by chain
Burning so majestic
Like the lions mane
Perpetually beautiful and mysterious

For the greatest debt eternally owed
The utmost pleasure is bestowed
The fearful seeds it sews
Bringeth us to new plateaus

The Altar dressed in ivory
Clothed with the blood of our kin
Ever to bask in our worship
Exalted as the cardinal sin

Provocateur of damnedest reveries
Doth arouse most perverse adulteries
Through the darkest halls
Above the highest walls
Once beyond man's reach
We arise to claim and breech
