I Smell Blood

from Domus Mysterium by Slaegt

lyrics

In wounds of lost children
In ashes of love
Rubedo emanates
In chambers above
A sense of fulfillment
Potent despair
Possessed by dead longing
I will take my share
Unaware of what might be lost
Gazing out of time
Into orbs, sublime

I smell blood
Bleeding endlessly
Cut by cut
I will look into Her eyes
Without fear or any pride
Down I’ll go…

As conquerors wither
As death carries on
A language forgotten
Will rise from beyond
And fluids of iron begin to define
The birth of a wisdom
That carries the sign
Of my crime
And the lies once told
To my infant ear
Yet, I was never there

I smell blood
As I fade away
Cut by cut
I will look into Her eyes
And Her violent heart in the dark
Into night…

In blighted devotion
In burning divides
A hunger of oceans
Will swallow the tides
Inside my veins
Making wings out of chains.
