Honey And Sulphur Lyrics

Honey And Sulphur lyrics

So potent was the star under which I was born

That I have done what no one in the world has done

No one can ever do



Praeclarum custodem ovium lupum

Praeclarum custodem ovium lupum



All Saints Day, the taint of rain

Blood and mud and thunder all the same

To those who close their ranks to Gille's men



Bricqueville, Prelati and De Sille

Creatures of the dark creeping

Up and down the countryside

Little angels out to pastume once again



Torture garden rules of thumb apply

To sacred flesh and the naked eye

Golgothic, this erotica

Stinking of honey and worse, sulphur



So black was the magic in this tragical kingdom

That the superstitions grew

Wise to the wolves that surprised their children

Gagged in sacks and dragged back to



Tiffauges

It's roads now home to a beautiful stranger

Lifting her veil, spinning her lies

Tender eyes, never ending danger



It grows

A rose that chose death for it's bed muck

Prickles in wait thanking her spies

Trickling thighs her only hiccup



And though she walks the forest trails

She's far from innocent or frail

She leads them down the path

Where darkness dwells



That night is rife with celebration the tower sings

Where so much foul illumination strikes a lighthouse for the things

That slither and slather at the border of the pentagram

Mid sour dreams, a beauty pageant for the gathering damned

Of slaughtered lambs and tortured screams



Torture garden rules of thumb apply

To sacred flesh and the naked eye

Golgothic, this erotica

Stinking of honey and worse, sulphur



So black was the magic in this tragical kingdom

In this castle of loup garou

When moonstruck veins inflamed, deranged on

A parcel of victims now tied to



Tiffauges

Engorged on the hordes of the anorexic

Cherubim forced, naked and blind

A holocaust mind designed their exit



A libertine so grim

Sometimes tore them limb from limb

Slitting their throats, pissing on graves

Jesus saves but the devil made him



Praeclarum custodem ovium lupum

Praeclarum custodem ovium lupum

Praeclarum custodem ovium lupum

Praeclarum custodem ovium lupum
