ALCHEMY LYRICS

1. Holy Anorexia

A commune of bells drown out this night sky,
Whilst the blood moon it hangs,
Beneath our lord's eyes,
From antiquity,
This pilgrimage sought to end their demise
Woeful hymns leak throughout
The mass to watch the towns zealots devout,
Streets laden with peasants for their omnipresence,
Begging for penance in the cities attendance,
Dependence on remnants of faith of a god said to be revenant
Horrifically mortifying themselves, tearing chunks of flesh to be cleansed of their filth
Ripping, whipping, cutting, slicing
Masochistic chastisement of faith
Swathed in black darkness, you're yet to be freed
A eucharist of pus
Sludging through lepers corpses at dusk
The unholy aroma of Christ's tears
Sweating from the pores of whores of destitute
Catherine, the lord's prostitute
Raped by Paul, John and Peter
Drew unhallowed purulence
She failed
However, our impure tongue may offend thee,
We must punish the guilty
Convoluted offenders of our gods
All are filthy, we must deprive ourselves to get closer to our lord
A holy anorexia
Engulfing all
