The Cathedral

from City of Devora by The Devouring Void

/

lyrics

Beyond these walls
A reign of savagery
Across the halls
Is sculpted immortality

The finest are chosen
Among the flock
Their flesh assembled
An the naked rock, bloody

As the gates open
I hear the screams
Such melodies
Are that of dreams

Purity is woven
In merciless perfection
I touch the crevices
Shiver in anticipation

Oh what sweet decay
The chants of pain
Demand foreplay

A million souls
Cry as I approach the walls
And feel the scars

Behold my temple of insanity

You are here to serve
As my eternal fantasy

A puppet to my urge
Shiver as I thrust

Call me your Majesty
As I peal the living skin
You belong to me
Blood flows thick from within

Ichor flows to the ground
As tender flesh emerges
Seeps into the underground
I can't control my urges

Oh what sweet decay
The chants of pain demand foreplay
Come join us in this cathedral

As muscles are exposed
As skin has been removed

White light turns to crimson
Deep thick vermillion

I kneel before the altar
Screams echo from afar

Hanging heads upon the wall
Skinless limbs trying to crawl

But I am not satisfied
Until the purest are defiled

I will feed, rend and thrust
All are torn by my lust

Give in

This temple of carnality
This monument to gluttony
Transpires vile misery

Cathedral of living flesh
The stench exhales death

A monument to my desire
Built upon the defiled

Give in

Surrender to the pact of flesh
In the most unholy cathedral

This temple of depravity
This monument to savagery
Transpires vile agony

Cathedral of living flesh
The stench exhales death

A monument to my desire
Built upon the defiled

This temple of insanity
Debauchery

The finest are chosen
Among the flock
Their flesh assembled
On the naked rock

Bloody

As the gates open
I hear the screams
Such melodies
Are that of dreams

Oh what sweet decay
The chants of pain
Demand foreplay
