The Spire Cranes Lyrics

A spire of ascension, the mourning of man
Out of the pierced eyes and cobalt skies
Grief with disheveled hands lash out the all humbling darkness
Tells us in silence of the last light that broke

A sermon of blood anointed with a touch of death
A pyre yet to be lightened, a pyre yet to be lightened by sin
I lay in ruin at the foot of a cross
All my faith shall depart with you

In the name of the father
In the name of the bastard son
From the mouths of the damned
I shall become

In the tongue of transfixing eye
The beast spoke to me
Withering me paralyzed
And without bones
Darkness hung on the wall
As a basket of snakes
Leaving the cold ground where I lay
I move closer to death

A sermon of blood anointed with a touch of death
A pyre yet to be lightened, a pyre yet to be lightened by sin
I lay in ruin at the foot of a cross
All my faith shall depart with you

In the name of the father
In the name of the bastard son
From the mouths of the damned
I shall become

Those holy and unholy hours
With the always anonymous beast

A spire of ascension
The spire cranes!
