Lyrics Balsamic and Anathema - Cradle of Filth
[Limited
Edition
bonus
track]
Worming
through
the
mark
Of
Ezekiel
and
Mark
Through
the
chapters
of
Honorius
Gilles,
as
in
a
trance
Screwed
the
pages
up
and
danced
Courting
something
vainly
glorious
He
walked
he
gravest
night
That
decrepit
final
juncture
Of
doom
and
negativity
Reeking
of
death
And
the
gloom
of
Stygian
light
When
suddenly,
the
faintest
whisper!
A
curtain
opened
in
a
painted
vista
Moonbeams
swept
into
his
dream...
Balsamic
and
anathema
Balsamic
and
anathema
Prelati
full
of
stars
Magical,
ecstatic
stars
That
sparkled,
no
debacle
sought
to
douse
His
fiery
omnipresence
Hissed
at
heaven,
evanescent
He
was
there
to
thwart
the
burning
of
his
Faust
The
gates
were
prised,
the
phantom
horses
Snorted,
restless
to
be
gone
With
enchantment's
eyes
upon
the
door,
he
cried-
'Come
with
me
now!'
Gilles
balked,
the
thought
of
life
Accused
and
pursued
And
overridden
by
morbidity
Saddened
his
breath
For
those
destined
for
his
knife
Then
suddenly
- the
strangest
feeling
One
that
left
the
angels
reeling
Atonement
crept
into
his
midst
Balsamic
and
anathema
Balsamic
and
anathema
Prelati,
full
of
stars
This
abductor
of
his
heart
Promised
him
horizons
free
of
pain
But
all
the
grand
designs
Magic
sings
and
midnight
wines
In
the
dream-world
couldn't
hope
to
swerve
his
aim
He
would
stay
and
face
his
slayers
Cardinals
and
courtroom
players
Whilst
Prelati
must
now
flee
before
The
pure
and
azure
dawn...
The
gates
were
wide,
the
phantom
horses
Snorted,
restless
to
be
gone
With
enchantment's
eyes
upon
the
door
Once
more
he
cried
'Come
with
me
now!'
Prelati
full
of
stars
Tried
to
pull
him
from
the
dance
Summoning
his
Barron
to
perform
But
as
the
Demon
rose
In
sweet
miracles
of
prose
And
propaganda,
came
a
proper
bible
storm
Lightning
- grinning,
froze
On
this
murder-site
of
crows
And
from
the
scattered
ashes
stepped
a
sylph
The
maiden
Joan
of
Arc
Crept
more
beautiful
and
dark
A
paradise,
a
cradle
free
of
filth
She
was
chaste
beyond
all
graces
The
face
of
faith
illuminated
More
precious
than
Prelati's
spell
A
Goddess
in
a
dream...
And
trembling
in
her
arm
Her
eyes
a
thousand
golden
psalms
That
glittered
as
on
Christmas
night
He
wept
like
Hallowe'en
He
held
the
scene,
the
poignant
gleam
Of
peace
and
great
serenity
Close
to
his
heart,
her
parting
kiss
He
slept
to
wake
released
in
bliss
