The Mark of Caïn Lyrics

My lifetime I gave
For domination - Will to power:
Transcending myself
Pushing the limits away
Always thirsty,
I seek a greater high
Brothers, show me what to look for!

Leave everything, and follow us:
We share with the light-seekers
The darkest secrets of the art
The over-consciousness, the gnosis:
The kingdom here on earth

Now tell me brothers
Reveal what shines inside,
deeper than the roots of sin
Awake the inner fire so it burns away
The wretched coating of my soul

Are you ready to rise?

Outpass - Purified of sin, pure of evil
Cleansed by knowledge
Outpass - Free and naked
Under the blazing glance
Of the outer god!

Now listen brother,
we show what shines inside,
deeper than the roots of sin
Awake the inner fire so it burns away
The wretched coating of your soull!

Honor
The horror
Keeping the left hand path

Step away from the others
And we shall tell
You the mysteries of the kingdom

Kill the Abel in you,
hatefully sacrifice the sweet one
Liberate the tumbling waters
Of the divine wrath
For tormenting the weak ones
Crushing the innocent with cruelty
Is the highest attribute of God
Lift up your eyes and look at the sky:
The blood red star that leads the way is yours
Leave your soul to be enlightened!

For only the pain that you give
Will set you free,
and transform you
Into what you really are
Then you shall be branded
With the dreadful mark of Caïn
The holy shield, a crown for you,
sacred homicide!
Then you shall be sent as a wolf
Amongst the lambs
A pastor amongst the wildest beasts!

Divine dust:
Make it shine in the dark!
Divine dust:
Make it grow and burn your soul!

(Reges eos in virga ferrea)
Through crime, holiness...
Through holocaust, ecstasy:
I dived into the lustral blood
And the slaughter set it free...

But the inner idol is so hungry;
It shall never be slaked - It claims
That the whole existence be devoted
To the ravenous flame roaring within

Thirsty - Blind and cold - Empty
The mouth of Moloch

My lifetime I gave
For domination, lust for power,
torturing myself
Pushing the limits away

I have walked through the fire,
I have been branded
With the unholy mark:
Now my whole existence is enslaved
By the merciless flame roaring within

Thirsty - Blind and cold - Empty
The mouth of Moloch
