hail baal in ekron
shuffle on this mortal coil
and carry me across
the river acheron
headed to the fallen son of dawn
cast into the stray

heaven's plight and wrath unto
the prostrate morning star

this bleak lit sky; tonight's alive
this prophecy and rising slave

dressed in gold and pearls
the immortal scarlet whore
throws allegory's scorn
drawn in astaroth's seal
it breaks the spell of trust
in tempting priests to lust
standing in the pumpkin patch every vatican calendar year
inches from black mass below the spreading hazel
where hate devours my gaze to the last dying ember
from the lit porch of winter
tonight comes to tuck me in, to cut you out, to carry me away
