Abraxas

Eros and Thanatos are branches on the same old tree
Rooted in the soil of shadow and light
If God was separated from the dark twin, the Devil
Could he ever know the soul of mankind?

We want a new god called Abraxas

Enter the Pleroma and see that nothingness is all
And you must destroy a world to be born
Alpha and Omega are the beginning and the end
United in the shape of Abraxas
Yeah, oh yeah

Darkness and the light
Sermones ad Mortuos, empty, fullness
Abraxas, your word is a riddle to be solved

You bear the mark of Cain
And you are fighting like a bird
To free you from the egg
The egg is all the world

The sermon to the dead
A gospel to another life
Hear the words of Cain
The sinner, and the saint

The grave is a flower
And you are dying to be born
Baptized by fire
And you will slough your skin

The sign of Abraxas
The circle of the solar year
Deep in the winter
You'll see the sun be born
