Lyrics
Sinistrous legendry fulgurates from me
My name is a word of power on the lips of my followers
You can't escape me, I'm inside your mind
Beware the Grand Arbiter of Temporal Jurisprudence
For when it comes at last, terrible shall be thy punishment
In the ceaseless shadow at the centre of infinity, the spheres have aligned
After the day, comes the night. My time has come
How seldom falls the opportunity to forge an empire without bloodshed
It will yet come to war
She Came Bearing Dark Portents (The Foreshadowing):
Fever-dreams, dark omens and augeries
Prophecy!
Why, when I meet your narcotic sloe-eyed gaze
Does the image of a viper nestling in a bed of blossoms fill my mind's eye?
Why, when you come to me by the pale light of a waning moon
Do I glimpse the sheen of ophidian scales through the veils of sable?
Why, when you enrapture me with your envenomed kisses
Does the flicker of a serpent's tongue score my flesh?
Enthralled by the vitreous lustre of your rubicund lips
Your snow-pale skin musky with the intoxicating scent of night
But such wicked thorns beneath this rose
Come witch, fly to me!
A garland of newborn stars to adorn thee
The Permian Extinction, a parting gift
May your maleficent soul walk only in dark places
