Seraphim

[00:00.01] (Two, one, two, three, four)
[00:01.61] Walk in the cathedral
[00:02.94] The seraphim stare down at me
[00:04.71] Their wings were mine to touch
[00:08.15] Golden alters, wooden Christ
[00:09.73] Who's feet I shyly kissed
[00:11.38] Feet I shyly kissed
[00:14.72] Traveled on a stage coach
[00:16.34] Rumbled through the night
[00:17.92] Held our bundles in our laps
[00:21.54] I once shot up with holy water
[00:23.11] When I dreamed that you had left
[00:25.04] Faced me as you flew away
[00:26.68] With leaves of laurel crown
[00:28.71]
[00:32.10] I shot up with holy water
[00:35.86]
[00:38.59] You were crowned leaves of laurels
[00:42.18] Found the men rеsponsible
[00:43.76] Shot my enemiеs poor
[00:45.55] Shot again a coup de grace
[00:47.49] I wrap them all in linen
[00:48.75] I lay them down in boxes
[00:50.51] Sail them out at the sea
[00:52.19] I snuck back to the village
[00:56.13]
[00:59.85] I layed them in linen
[01:02.97]
[01:06.62] Sail them out to sea
[01:10.02] "I'm your almighty and you're lowliest of slaves
[01:16.65] Everything you took from me and everything you gave
[01:22.99] She, whom you forsook, and in your"
[01:36.15] "I'm going to feed and shine down
[01:39.88] Glory all your days on you, Chosen one"
[01:49.55]
[01:56.14] "I'm the one who raped you
[01:57.24] Who you think of when you beat off
[01:59.69] Potion that you drink
[02:00.79] When you take solace at the Lethe"
[02:03.05] "I'm your high priest, I'm the prayer you repeat
[02:06.24] Sacrificial lamb lies bleeding at your feet
[02:09.92] You, my Messiah"
[02:17.27]
[02:27.34] Kneel (kneel) and take communion
[02:30.26] Open your mouth (mouth) and take the host
[02:33.15] This is my blood (my blood)
[02:34.96] This is my body (my body)
[02:36.71] Taste the wine, open your throat
[02:39.66] I am your lord (your lord)
[02:41.20] Be my temptation (my temptation)
[02:43.10] Be my seduction (seduction)
[02:44.86] I can't resist (I can't resist)
[02:46.68] Now my Mary Magdalene
[02:49.87] Now my Jesus Christos
[02:53.22] Savior, nemesis (nemesis)
[02:56.32] My cross, my cross
[02:58.28] My joy
[02:59.87] My sanctuary
[03:03.25] Bones and white apple
[03:09.77] The golden domed [?]
[03:13.11] Show me moonless skies
[03:16.67] Sought you in confessionals
[03:18.48] And when your voice I heard
[03:20.06] Spilled my sins into you
[03:21.95] And you became a seraphim
[03:23.73] Carried me away
[03:25.35] On wings of felt and broken quill
[03:27.20] Cloaked in stony liquefaction
[03:30.68] One hand held out stretched beseeching
[03:34.05] The other raised to blast
[03:37.71]
[03:41.19] Now you turn your arms and fold me
[03:44.32]
[03:48.04] In glory we're consumed
[03:52.79]
