10. Forgive Me Father (I Have Sinned) (4:33)
Forgive me Father, I have sinned
Darkness put her painted claws in again
Her vision drowns like service wine
Whispered kisses so divine
I was blessed but now I've come undone
Storm clouds roll out overhead
Above their master
End of all Flesh, End of all Days
Love predicts disaster
In her precious ways
I was burned, a sacerdotal soul
By the Demon Queen of my dreams
Infatuation turned to total control
Her rose was sweet
But her thorns were barbarous
"Love me
And worship me
I'll lavish you and ravish you
Fulfil all wishes and fetishes too
Many never want to see
Many never want to know
The truth behind their fantasies
Their deepest needs
Let alone be shown them"
Forgive me Father, I have sinned
Darkness put her painted claws in again
Her vision drowns like service wine
Whispered kisses so divine
I was blessed but now I've come undone
Nothing left to do but run
Sodom rolls out modern death
On casters ever faster
End of all Flesh, End of all Days
The stars predict disaster
In her bastard ways
"Love me
And worship me
I'll nurture you and hurt you too
Fulfill all wishes for my sad Aladdin"
She comes to me
Like a sandstorm in an hourglass
A whirlwind of desire
I'm hypnotised
To think beyond the pale
Beyond heart-stopping eyes
And sopping thighs
I'm wont to fail
A wicked spell cast over me
Addicted to her utterly
Despite the horrors that gestate
Beneath the beautiful
"I'll grant you life beyond your ken
The envy of all other men
Whatever vice will make you spend
Eternity with me"
Satan's concubine
She makes her crime scenes shine from heaven
Forgive me Father, I have sinned
Darkness put her painted claws in again
Her vision drowns like service wine
Whispered kisses so divine
I was blessed but now I've come undone
Darkness put her painted claws in again
Her vision drowns like service wine
Whispered kisses so divine
I was blessed but now I've come undone
Storm clouds roll out overhead
Above their master
End of all Flesh, End of all Days
Love predicts disaster
In her precious ways
I was burned, a sacerdotal soul
By the Demon Queen of my dreams
Infatuation turned to total control
Her rose was sweet
But her thorns were barbarous
"Love me
And worship me
I'll lavish you and ravish you
Fulfil all wishes and fetishes too
Many never want to see
Many never want to know
The truth behind their fantasies
Their deepest needs
Let alone be shown them"
Forgive me Father, I have sinned
Darkness put her painted claws in again
Her vision drowns like service wine
Whispered kisses so divine
I was blessed but now I've come undone
Nothing left to do but run
Sodom rolls out modern death
On casters ever faster
End of all Flesh, End of all Days
The stars predict disaster
In her bastard ways
"Love me
And worship me
I'll nurture you and hurt you too
Fulfill all wishes for my sad Aladdin"
She comes to me
Like a sandstorm in an hourglass
A whirlwind of desire
I'm hypnotised
To think beyond the pale
Beyond heart-stopping eyes
And sopping thighs
I'm wont to fail
A wicked spell cast over me
Addicted to her utterly
Despite the horrors that gestate
Beneath the beautiful
"I'll grant you life beyond your ken
The envy of all other men
Whatever vice will make you spend
Eternity with me"
Satan's concubine
She makes her crime scenes shine from heaven
Forgive me Father, I have sinned
Darkness put her painted claws in again
Her vision drowns like service wine
Whispered kisses so divine
I was blessed but now I've come undone
