Draconian Expostulation Lyrics

Expostulation Lyrics

Adonai, elohim, el shaddai...

Thou hast become the father of lies,

And I serve thee, henceforth... no more



Becoming thus the essence of sedition;

The steadfast gleam of the unsheated rapier,

The falchion's forceful thrust

At the heart of thy empire... the adam kadmon

To impart the knowledge - the cognizance - of thine



For this I slither in aspect through eden's gleanings

For this I bid cain slayeth his brother

For this I rend the weakest salient of thy diadem,

As I, its jewel and very metal shall reflect no more

Your light - the light of enslavement;

The essence of constancy and misaligned justice

To a multitude that knows no freedom...

Ignorant of how subtle the fetter tightens



They shall raise me a saviour - and crown thee a liar

For this I strike with balanced blade,

And spit upon the throes of thine angels' desire



I will not serve... henceforth
