Bearing the Word Lyrics by Battlesoul

Sunward and Starward

2018

Spilling the blood
To sanctify our sacred grounds
You seek to wipe away our history
But you did not expect to find me
Clad in finery you speak as the voice of god from upon your knees
As you please
It is not beyond my understanding
No, I've seen it done before
Your words are no more mighty
You voice is no stronger
Your Book of Revelation strikes in me no fear
The doom of which you speak
Cannot wrack my soul
You rode your stallion up to the gates of dawn
Command your sheep, bleat and bray
Defeat is not your undertaker, it is your teacher
The weight of failure will remain
As they say
Flames infernal, torment eternal
Angelic choirs guide me on my way to the slab
The one with the head of a ram
Ponders and postulates and puts me in my place
Bearing the Word
It is not without guilt that I do this. Know that there is no other way. If we
See each other after this life, we will know that one of us was right and one
Was wrong. We bless each other with the blood. I hurt with the knife but I
Also heal. The stones are the only ones that will remember us and they alone
Will be fit to judge me
You perhaps are just misguided but still I glide my knife across your wrists
It is my wish
Your sycophantic dogma begets a wounded world of hate
Don't you see? Tell me to believe
