Hierophania Lyrics

"How homely mankind is...eating, sleeping, drinking, mating, urinating, defecating, and finally passing away. Only those of us who are forced to listen everyday, in the secrecy of the confessional, to the stories of its filth, its iniquity, may express an opinion on the human race, on the futility of earthly things, states, kingdoms, and hidden life inside the houses. If I had to express my own overall opinion, to issue my own
judgment, I would gladly invoke the doomsday, and peacefully pass an irrevocable sentence of total death."

"Come sono piccoli gli uomini, che mangiano, dormono, bevono, s'accoppiano, mingono, defecano, e poi vanno all'altro mondo. Soltanto chi come noi è costretto ad ascoltare ogni giorno nel segreto del confessionale i racconti che gli uomini fanno delle loro sporcizie, delle loro nequizie, può esprimere un parere sul genere umano, sulla futilità delle cose terrene, degli stati, dei regni, e sulla vita nascosta dentro le case. Se io dovessi dare un mio giudizio complessivo, emettere una mia sentenza, io volentieri invocherei il diluvio universale, ed emetterei serenamente una sentenza irrevocabile di morte generale."

In the beginning was the world
Lie of a cursed deity
Bitterness, Wrath, Anger, the black mark upon humanity
Eternal creation, mass, chaos, obscurity
Nothingness generates the will the power, the deity

I won't put this anger away
Let wrath surmount the pain

No way to return your suffering
Thy wrath burns covered with grace
The world hangs in agony
Whitering trail of beauty
Satanic Hierophania Hidden by his mystery
I am the earth
The beginning as the end of everything

Bring water, bring wine, let me get wasted and fall into sleep
The goblet tells me what I've become
In a unspeakable silence I spoke
