Song Lyrics » Lyrics to Babylon Whores » lyrics to omega therion

For want of an angel
For all the lead that you thought you turned gold
There is something you still want to know
Il Penseroso led you astray
To the woods and the wild
The pathless way
And you followed the trail that Shelley fared
Gazed on dead kings with your sullen despair
Even the Dome of the Rock in Blake's city
Bore no trace of St. Augustine
And you studied Plotinus
Thrice great Trismegistos
Knew the reign of Hister and Niebelung
Nietzsche, Vril und Gotterdammerung
Do you want an angel
Heaven clad as the stars fell
Do you want an angel
Poison of god to make it well
For want of an angel
For all the blood that you turned into ink
You found yourself still searching
A heosphoros for a golden dawn
A scarlet sunrise for Babalon
Someone to stop all the watches now
Someone to bring this shithouse down
All things must have an end
All things to all men
Forget the tuesday baby
Let it be a doomsday baby
Come on and suck a megaton
Omega Therion
Oh it is time
Unbind the lines of horizon
Omega Therion
Take you away

~ The Birth of Babalon ~

What is the tumult among the Stars
That have shone so still till now?
What are the furrows of pain and wrath
Upon the immortal brow?
Why is the face of God turned grey
And his angels all grown white?
What is the terrible Ruby Star
That burns down the crimson night?
What is the beauty that flames so bright
Athwart the awful Dawn?
She has taken flesh, she is come to judge
the thrones ye rule upon.
Quail ye kings for an end is come ...
... In the Birth of BABALON.

I have walked three dreadful nights away
In halls beyond despair,
I have given marrow and tears and sweat
and blood to make her fair.
I have lain my love and smashed my heart
and filled her cup with blood,
That blood might flow from the loins of woe
to the cup of brotherhood.
The cities reel in the shout of steel
where the sword of war is drawn.
Sing ye saints for the day is come ...
... In the Birth of BABALON.

Now God has called for his judgement book
and seen his name therein
And the grace of God and the guilt of God
have spelt it out as sin
His bloody priests have clutched his robes
and stained his linen gown
And his victims swarm from his broken hell
to drag his kingdom down.
O popes and kings and the little gods
are sick and sad and wan
To see the crimson star that bursts
like blood upon the dawn
While trumpets sound and stars rejoice ...
... At the Birth of BABALON.

BABALON is too beautiful
for sight of mortal eyes
She has hidden her loveliness away
in lonely midnight skies,
She has clothed her beauty in robes of sin
and pledged her heart to swine
And loving and giving all she has
brewed for saints immortal wine.
But now the darkness is riven through
and the robes of sin are gone,
And naked she stands as a terrible blade
and a Flame and a splendid Song
Naked in radiant mortal flesh ...
... At the Birth of BABALON.

She is come new born as a mortal maid
forgetting her high estate,
She has opened her arms to pain and death
and dared the doom of fate,
And death and hell are at her back,
but her eyes are bright with life,
Her heart is high and her sword is strong
to meet the deadly strife,
Her voice is sure as the judgement trump
to crack the house of wrong,
Though walls are high and stone is hard
and the rule of hell was long
The gates shall fall and the irons break ...
... In the Birth of BABALON.

Her mouth is red and her breasts are fair
and her loins are full of fire,
And her lust is strong as a man is strong
in the heat of her desire,
And her whoredom is holy as virtue is foul
beneath the holy sky,
And her kisses will wanton the world away
in passion that shall not die.
Ye shall laugh and love and follow her dance
when the wrath of God is gone
And dream no more of hell and hate ...
... In the Birth of BABALON ...

777 - Truth

I am the motherless
me I have no father
but my husband of fire
gave birth to me.

The stars at my back
for the first time
I set my feat on earth
since then
I embrace the hole earth in one go.

I am the goddess with uncountable names,
yet I am all goddesses in one,
no one hardly knows my real name.

I am no good to mankind
but I am better than everyone
cause I am honest and
my honesty may kill you.

When I let my thoughts fly
the world my start to burn.
Hella - I burn away all lies
till the drunken world is sober.

I was Jehovas beloved one
yet he hated me for my very strong will.
He called me evil, named me a hore
regardless of his sins that were as uncountable
as all the souls he sent to hell.

But all this up to the very day
he fell into my trap
entangled in my net
untill his everlasting death!

Yes, fire is my very passion and
the bitter sword for all my enemies.
False Gods and Kings and blinded men
may fear it! May fear me!

When Horus spread his wings
to sit on to the "holy" Cross
I open my arms wide - for Christ´s sake
before I burn down every false religion.

I tell you - dusk isn´t far away!
Hella a new dawn!
