2								2
	Heart in hand passed to the clasp of pain						Heart in hand passed to the clasp of pain
	In a dark lowland that set bad blood in veins						In a dark lowland that set bad blood in veins
1	Burning, like penal fires roused to strain						Burning, like penal fires roused to stain	1
2	The jagged-toothed skyline braced with crosses						The jagged-toothed skyline	2
1							braced with crosses	1
	The golden dawn						The golden dawn
	Lay lost to mist where						Lay lost to mist where
	Emboldened thorns						Emboldened thorns
	Made their bed with toppled stones						Made their bed with toppled stones
3	He closed his eyes						He closed His eyes	3
4	Sunken to dream there of crow-black skies						Sunken to dream there	4
2							Of crow-black skies	2
	And a great white empty throne						And a great white empty throne
5	Horror stalked the bilious fogs that balked his visions						Horror stalked the bilious fogs	5
3							That balked His vision	3
6	He licked the spittle from the cheeks of the wry						He licked the spittle from	6
7	And drifted back to when his stung its target						the cheeks of the wry	7
4							And drifted back to when	4
5							His stung it's target	5
	The sneer of Michael on a glorious high						The sneer of Michael on a glorious high
8	Of angel dust and virtue by his side						Of angel dust and Virtue by his side	8

4	Better to reign in hell							4
	Drowning in the past						Drowning in the past
	That downfall seemed like yesterday						That downfall seemed like yesterday
	Though blurred moons passed						Though blurred moons passed
	As enemies in high places laughed						As enemies in high places laughed
	Moved to mirrors cracked with heavy lines						Moved to mirrors cracked with heavy lines
9	He rose snow blind, through shifting sands of time						He rose snowblind, though	9
6							shifting sands of time	6
	Erased the trace and taste of bitter wines						Erased the trace and taste of bitter wines
	The grapes of wrath grew fat on the vine						The grapes of wrath grew fat on the vine
10	She came to him						She came to Him	10
	A little whip of tantrums						A little whip of tantrums
	Thrashed on velvet skins						Thrashed on velvet skins
11	That lines her wishbone henge						That lined Her wishbone Henge	11
7								7
8							Her name was Sin	8
9							A warming spurt of mantras	9
10							Splashed on occult tongues	10
11							That whispered sweet revenge	11
5	Her name was sin, a warming spurt of mantras							5
6	Splashed on occult tongues that whispered sweet revenge							6
	For the shame of their crawl from grace						For the shame of their crawl from grace
	Cold and hollow as the grave						Cold and hollow as the grave
12	And for a rape and ruinous scourge						And for the rape and ruinous scourge	12
13	Spared for souls that shared God's worship						Spared for souls that had shared	13
12							God's worship	12
	For now their throats coated notes with dirge						For now their throats coated notes with dirge
	That poured from parapets to the pits below						That poured from parapets to the pits below
7	Better to reign in hell							7
8								8
	Drowning in the past						Drowning in the past
	A wretched scream like yesterday						A wretched scream like yesterday
14	Died at last with the rising of the revenant dark						Died at last	14
15	All sharpened claws and blunt discharge						With the rising of the revenant dark	15
16	I shall bow no more to the dogs of the Lord						"I shall bow no more to the dogs of the Lord	16
	Tearing at my carcass heart						Tearing at my carcass heart
	I shall fall to my knees only at the keyholes						I shall fall to my knees only at the keyholes
17	Of virtue slipping into bondage masks						Of Virtue slipping into bondage masks...	17
18	Freewill made me better to reign in hell						Freewill made me better to reign in Hell"	18
19	And with new wings unfurled and spoken						And with new wings	19
20	He took to things that would desecrate the world						Unfurled and spoken	20
21	The seduction of both woman and man						He took to things	21
22	For a bastard master plan						That would desecrate the wold	22
