To slit the grinning wounds from childhood's seven moons
The palette stained with the ejaculated passions
♪
Strike from omnipotence, all-seer, all-deemer
And haunt my severed country with your dripping, secret games
♪
You pick the unripe lilies, deflored and peeled the bleeding petals
Made known to me, the grainy stains, the crimson lotus
Of the Black-Ash Inheritance
The semen feed of gods and masters
The worms still in me, still a part of me
Racing out from leaking rooms
Swoop from broken lungs to block the transmission
To put an end to the nomad years
♪
Father, you are the dead god in me
Father, you are the dead god in me
