THE WOUNDED KINGS LYRICS

1. Gnosis

I saw the devil
He made my shadows flesh
Enthroned in darkness
I choked on his foul breath
His grip grows stronger
In every waking hour
He battles with my soul
To keep me from her tower

Hail
Hail, she will return
Hail
Hail, she will return

I saw the devil
He made my shadows flesh
Enthroned in darkness
He smiles at my slow death
His grip grows stronger
Temptation and desire
Elige Magistrum (this is latin for choose a Master)
In every dying hour

Hail
Hail, she will return
Hail
Hail, she will return

Rise, as a serpent of light
Rise, again
Rise, as a serpent of light
Rise

2. Lost Bride

Within the veil of Isis
All hail the Crimson Goddess

Lost bride, reclaim your throne
I am yours and you are mine
Lost bride, reclaim your throne
I am yours, and you are mine

Within the veil of Isis
All hail the Crimson Goddess

Lost bride, reclaim your throne
I am yours and you are mine
Lost bride, reclaim your throne
I am yours, and you are mine

Beneath your gaze
Our spirit will arise
It’s been foretold
Sealed within the sky
Burn our eyes and part our skin
And when we heal
We will see and feel again

Burn our eyes and cut our skin
And when we heal
We will see and feel again

Beneath the sun
And in these times
Upon this earth
We will find eternal life

3. Elige Magistrum

[Instrumental]

4. Consolamentum

These seven gates lay open
Bare flesh and naked soul
The flames of wrath
Reach out to claim us now

In the time of the fifth moon
The lady of the silver wheel
A woven cloth of Ether
From the heart of the Dragon Queen

How long must we wait
Before the dawn
How long must we wait
Before the darkness fades

These seven gates lay open
Resist the devil’s toll
The veil must part
Death has no dominion now

In the time of the fifth moon
The lady of the silver wheel
Blazing cloth of Ether
A kiss from the Dragon Queen

How long must we wait
Before the dawn
How long must we wait
Before the darkness fades

Je t`ai aime dans le passe.
Je t`aime aujourd hui.
T`aimerais encore dans l`avenir.
Le temps revient.
(Spoken prayer of the Cathars)
(I have loved you before.
I love you today.
And I will love you again.
The time returns.)

Consolamentum [3x]

Free from voice

5. Space Conqueror

[Instrumental]

6. The Silence

Born of sun and the moon
We have come from the stars
An ancient tome it is told
We must find the lost gold

The Truth
So long entombed, enshrined
Genocide on a dark mountainside
The Truth
So long entombed, enshrined
Appears to be hiding in plain sight

Born of blood, born of stone
Dragon Queen take us home
Their voices ever be heard
Though much still lies in the Earth

The Truth
So long entombed, enshrined
Genocide on a dark mountainside
The Truth
So long entombed, enshrined
Appears to be hiding in plain sight

There’s a weight on our souls
And it’s dragging us under
Cold hands in the darkness
Are holding us down

There’s a weight on our souls
And it’s dragging us under
Cold hands in the darkness
Are holding us down

7. Sacrifice

[Instrumental]
