Living Temple

from Devil's Paradise by Black Death Cult

lyrics

Pilgrims, on a journey one by one
Prayer beads on a necklace
Candles on the Altar row by row
Teeth in skulls in the nameless graves

Amulets on necks
The Hoary flapping robes
Beds are wet with sweat and blood
Insects feast on forgotten skin

An X shaped grave with two bodies
Skeletal cross barring the shaft to the depths
Below the rocks and chasms
The bellies of wyverns grow fat

Between the teeth of the crocodile we wander

Our leering skull sockets skinless

Faces carved off in devotion
Rancid tongues utter morbid prayers

Ropes and tar our clothes
Dangling from stalagmites
Under the maw of Abaddon
The door in the dragon's throat

about

Black Death Cult

Glazed stone steps to chambers deep,
the ancient rut, worn by giant's feet.

The umbilical starshaft tends angles, bearing
plasma of hadit.
