SUMAC LYRICS

1. The Task


What has, will and can be seen
Feeds at root in crimson pools
Through all
These binding waters flow
By channels interwoven

Without a fear of severance
When horizon sun beheads
Would leave endless days of drought
And dust to keen
Through our hollow husks

In pillars made of flesh and bone
In repose and undisturbed
Would rot our hearts unwrung

Though clouds are licked by flame
From the fiery tongues of man unhinged
Ruin that's sought may buried be
By all bodies in love entwined

Risk our hands in others' held

To be seen
Stripped and raw
Under threat of rending blows
The task of souls imbued with light
Risk our hands in others' held


2. Attis' Blade


Body, tongue, touch and need
In suffocating arms were these learned
And from the withered teat was suckled
Poison nectar

Born of curse to walk the earth
Demanding service from the fallen
The evil seed in perfumed bloom
Chokes the host its bearer

To rut with shades
That welcome weakling conqueror king
In their embrace
The soul seeps from rotted loins

No hope for healing
Seen by eyes grown dim
Still he throws himself on clustered thorns

The lonely throne of he who seeks
The paltry arms of pleasure

In their beds he is compelled
To lose the blood of sin contained


3. Arcing Silver


My day did dusk to turn
As you emerged
And in your face
I saw my own
Before years drawn long

From the other side
You came in
And in your gaze
I saw my end
As years draw on
As years draw long

As one into another turned
Iron point in furrowed dirt
From graying hair and aching bones
To supple flesh
And shining eyes

Countenance so bright beheld
A midnight sun dispels the dark
Arcing momentary silver flash
To pierce encroaching night

As flows in you
Our better blood


4. Ecstasy Of Unbecoming


No utterance from granite tongue
No steps permit a path's retreat
Cast back to open lands
Once so freely roamed

Hover here
A gate between
The dim unseen
And that which lays in light

The gathered howl of spectral hordes
In torrential silent screaming
Behind pinhole pupils black
Beg release through flood and fire

Time is broken
Off its axis
Shards in pinprick constellation

Seek the peace of utter blankness
Intoxicated by the vapors
As the core to ash is turned
