Hymn Of The End

from Hymns of Exile & Decay by Oryad

/

lyrics

Came monsters, livid--
With desire.
They fought,
Wrangled over the world, A morsel.

God lay dead in heaven;
Angels sang the hymn of the end;
Purple winds went moaning,
Their wings drip...drip-dripping with blood.
That fell upon the earth.
It, groaning thing,
Turned black and sank.
Then from the far caverns

Of dead sins
Of dead sins

Came monsters, livid----
with desire.
They fought,
Wrangled over the world, A morsel.

But of all sadness this was sad--
A woman’s arms tried to shield
The head of a sleeping man
From the jaws of the final…

Final Beast….
Final Beast….

Came monsters, livid--
With desire.
They fought,
Wrangled over the world, A morsel.

Came monsters, livid--
With desire.
They fought,
Wrangled over the world, A morsel.

Came monsters, livid--
With desire.
They fought,
Wrangled over the world, A morsel.
