    HER GHOST IN THE FOG

    The Moon, she hangs like a cruel portrait
    Soft winds whisper the bidding of trees
    As this tragedy starts with a shattered glass heart
    And the Midnightmare trampling of dreams
    But on, no tears please
    Fear and pain may accompany Death
    But it is desire that shepherds it's certainty
    As We shall see..."

    She was divinity's creature
    That kissed in cold mirrors
    A Queen of Snos
    Far beyond compare
    Lips attuned to symmetry
    Sought Her everywhere
    Dark liqoured eyes
    An Arabian nightmare...

    She shone on watercolours
    Of my pondlife as pearl
    Until those who couldn't have Her
    Cut Her free of this World

    That fateful Eve when...
    The trees stank of sunset and camphor
    Their lanterns chased phantoms and threw
    An imquisitive glance, like the shadows they cast
    On my love picking rue by the light of the moon

    Putting reason to flight
    Or to death as their way
    They crept through woods mesmerized
    By the taffeta Ley
    Of Her hips that held sway
    Over all they surveyed
    Save a mist on the rise
    (A deadly blessing to hide)
    Her ghost in the fog

    They raped left...
    (Five men of God)
    ...Her ghost in the fog

    Dawn discovered Her there
    Beneath the Cedar's stare
    Silk dress torn, Her raven hair
    Flown to gown Her beauty bared
    Was starred with frost, I knew Her lost
    I wept 'til tears crept back to prayer

    She'd sworn Me vows in fragrant blood
    "Never to part
    Lest jealous Heaven stole our hearts"

    Then this I screamed:
    "Come back to Me
    I was born in love with thee
    So why should fate stand inbetween?"

    And as I drowned Her gentle curves
    With dreams unsaid and final words
    I espied a gleam trodden to earth
    The Church bell tower key...

    The village mourned her by the by
    For She'd been a witch
    Their Men had longed to try
    And I broke under Christ seeking guilty signs
    My tortured soul on ice

    A Queen of snow
    Far beyond compare
    Lips attuned to symmetry
    Sought Her everywhere
    Trappistine eyes
    An Arabian nightmare...

    She was Ersulie possessed
    Of a milky white skin
    My porcelain Yin
    A graceful Angel of Sin

    And so for Her...
    The breeze stank of sunset and camphor
    My lantern chased Her phantom and blew
    Their Chapel ablaze and all locked in to a pain
    Best reserved for judgement that their bible construed...

    Putting reason to flight
    Or to flame unashamed
    I swept form cries
    Mesmerized
    By the taffeta Ley
    Or Her hips that held sway
    Over all those at bay
    Save a mist on the rise
    A final blessing to hide
    Her ghost in the fog

    And I embraced
    Where lovers rot...
    Her ghost in the fog

    Her ghost in the fog


    HOLLOWED BY THE NAME

    I'm waiting in my cold cell when the bell begins to chime
    Reflecting on my past life, and it doesn't have much time
    'Cause at 5 o'clock they take me to The Gallow's Pole
    The sands of time for me are running low

    Motherfuckers!!

    Running low!!

    When the priest comes to read me the last rites
    I take a look through the bars at the last sights
    Of a world that has gone very wrong for me

    Can it be that there's some sort of error?
    Hard to stop the surmounting terror
    Is it really the end not some crazy dream?

    Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming
    It's not so easy to stop from screaming
    But words escape me when I try to speak
    Tears they flow but why am I crying?
    After all I am not afraid of dying
    Don't believe that there never is an end

    As the guards march me out to the courtyard
    Someone cries from a cell "God be with you"
    If there's a God then why has he let me die?

    As I walk all my life drifts before me
    Though the end is near I'm not sorry
    Catch my soul it's willing to fly away

    Mark my words believe my soul lives on
    Don't worry now that I have gone
    I've gone beyond to see the truth

    When you know that your time is close at hand
    Maybe then you'll begin to understand
    Life down there is just a strange illusion.

    Oh, hallowed be thy name
    Oh, hallowed be thy
    Name

    Hallowed be thy name
    Hallowed be thy name
    Hallowed be thy name
    Hallowed be thy name
    No
