Seraphim Lyrics by Tribe 8

Fist City

0

Walk in the cathedral
The seraphim stare down at me
Their wing are mine to dust
Golden altars' wooden Christs
Who's feet I shyly kissed
Feet I shyly kissed

We traveled in a stage coach
It rumbled through the night
We held our bundles in our laps
In velvet cloaks we huddled rapt

I once shot up with holy water
When I dreamed that you had left
You faced me as you flew away
With leaves of laurel crowned
I shot up with holy water
You were crownеd leaves of laurel

I am your almighty and your lowliеst of slaves
I'm everything you took from me
And everything you gave
She whom you forsook and
Whom you mercifully saved
I anoint your feet and shine
Down glory all your days on you
Chosen one

Kneel and take communion
Open your mouth and take the host
This is my blood
This is my body
Taste the wine
Open your throat
I am your lord
You my temptation
You the seduction
I can't resist
Now my Mary Magdalene
Now my Jesus Christus
Savior and nemesis
My cross and my joy
Pleasure sanctuary to monks
And choir boys

I'm the one who rapes you
Who you think of when you beat off
Potion that you drink
When you take solace at the Lethe
I'm your high priest
I'm the prayer you repeat
Sacrificial lamb that lies
Bleeding at your feet
You
My messiah

The golden-domed Iglesia stone
In moonless skies
I sought you in confessionals
And when your voice I heard
I spilled my sins into your ear
And you became the seraphim
And carried me away
On wings of felt and broken quill
Cloaked in stony liquefaction
One hand stretched out
Beseeching
The other raised to bless
Now eternal arms enfold me
In glory we're consumed
