Poisoned Atonement (Purged in Molten Gold) Lyrics

At the hour of fornication I blended poison and wine
From the goblet of the Lord's libation I drink the atoning scourge
I obeyed his precepts with fear begging to be redeemed
The Time for purification is near, relieve me and seal my eyes

I've been purged for my excessive passions
A baptism in fire to enter the joys of Heaven
I asked for indulgence to relieve my torment

The Prophet's fluid are drained, boiled and pulverized
Pain and bliss melt with bones and feed the storm
Below the oceans lies the Annunciation
I found the path to shameless confession

Furious gospel to heal my sins
God's divine will is against my pleasures


I bow before you, oh eyeless Lord for whom my bowels bleed
Grace me and I will admit my sins, allow me to repent
Irradiate my nerves with plague, my mortal membranes fade
Unmolded flesh engulfed by winds, I witness my organic end

Poisoned Atonement

At the River of gold
the Mirage of faith
shall be revealed
by the oracle's tears

“He who comes to be saved shall walk through a fire that burns away sins and worldliness like lead, leaving behind only pure gold.”
