Lyrics:Kapo!-THE RAT AND THE EUCHARIST

Featured on :
 * Kapo!

On the marble cliffs above the waves

Beneath the rising inferno of history

Exiled in the quickening twilight of salvation

Awake to the light of a colder consciousness

The decay and renewal of the blood of promise

A faith without meaning?

A discipline without justification?

Devoid of the fear of nothingness

Being born of nothingness

The great immaculate inhuman pulse

Behind the teeming carcass of false life

On the marble cliffs above the waves

Beneath the devouring inferno of history

Exiled in the threatening twilight of salvation

A hero turned traitor

A traitor turned hero

The assassin turned saint

Our patron saint of murder

Were these the last disciples of the lords of victory

Bound and gagged on the whirling horns of destiny

Gathering like ghosts at the broken altars of life

To prey where vermin have carried the plague?

Treachery and honur

Like the double blade of life itself

Passing with the sun from the shadows of the worldv To fall to earth like so many shattered stars

The burnt out and petrified tears of eternity

On the marble cliffs above the waves

Beneath the dying inferno of history

Exiled in the fleeting twilight of salvation

Hailing the light of the colder consciousness

The renewal and the decay of the blood of promise
