Of all the Pearls we cast to Swine
Holy father made of bones. Take my heart, it's made if stone
Broken bruised but still alive, I've come to seize the spear of life
Sparkling sister of the stars. Please accept my broken heart
Once the world has ceased to weep, we shall both return to sleep
Waking mother made of wood. You said you knew, you understood
Silver runs inside my veins, let me feel defiled again
Burning brother of the sun. Can you tell what I've become?
Absinth kisses in the fall, greenest fairy of them all
Absent father made of clay. Have you seen the sun today?
Dressed in feathers rolled in tar, we're all sentenced from the start
Wicked sister dressed in fur. Can you hear the heavens purr?
Every symbol raised in flesh, only glistens once undressed
Raging mother of the earth. Were you present at my birth?
Blessed be your cross of faith, made of iron forged in hate
Darkest brother made of pine. All the pearls we cast to swine
See the stars look down and say, who will end their lives today?
Wretched father made of skin. Did you let the evil in?
Who is naughty who is nice, fate is dead, cast the dice
Serpent sister made of yore. Won't you join my holy war?
Take my hand and lead the way, the birth of night, the death of day
Broken bruised but still alive, I've come to seize the spear of life
Sparkling sister of the stars. Please accept my broken heart
Once the world has ceased to weep, we shall both return to sleep
Waking mother made of wood. You said you knew, you understood
Silver runs inside my veins, let me feel defiled again
Burning brother of the sun. Can you tell what I've become?
Absinth kisses in the fall, greenest fairy of them all
Absent father made of clay. Have you seen the sun today?
Dressed in feathers rolled in tar, we're all sentenced from the start
Wicked sister dressed in fur. Can you hear the heavens purr?
Every symbol raised in flesh, only glistens once undressed
Raging mother of the earth. Were you present at my birth?
Blessed be your cross of faith, made of iron forged in hate
Darkest brother made of pine. All the pearls we cast to swine
See the stars look down and say, who will end their lives today?
Wretched father made of skin. Did you let the evil in?
Who is naughty who is nice, fate is dead, cast the dice
Serpent sister made of yore. Won't you join my holy war?
Take my hand and lead the way, the birth of night, the death of day
