Clove hitch 06:41
Cut the water Cut the sky Mast on fire Feed the waves Cut the water with sword and with prow Feed the waves to the bough All hands on deck and go for the kill beast devouring beast in this race In soaring winds and crushing waves All who are worthy to stand up to their fate Are eager to worship, each in their own way Yet long for the shore which keeps them save Cut the sky with lines and mast on fire Feed the wind to the sails Free from the land cold death surrounds us Never surrender we know no defeat

Cast from the sea they took my bread away Can’t taste the sea no more A man of steel and fire now washed ashore Can’t taste the sea no more They chained my heart and soul Chained my boat But they will never win They’ll pay for all their Sins It's a cradle and grave, fed by sea killed by waves From the sea to the heart, taste the salt in my veins Treachery beneath, all the calmness I see Fight them all tooth and nail, fight them all you will fail encore They chained my heart and soul Chained my boat They threw me overboard I’m dying inside and I’ll DROWN It is death I tell you it’s death A fisherman sleeps and dies in his bed It is death I tell you it’s death The fire inside me once burning now dead

Scared of worms, dig deep that grave A prison to myself I’m digging all their graves Nameless, silent and cold An island to myself I’m digging my own grave Save me from worms (They) Call me a bastard but I just keep digging deeper I just keep digging deeper (Cause ) I’m scared of all the worms They want to clean my bones Don’t feed the worms When I’m dead besides the road Who wants to pick my bones? Feed on me crows (They) Call me a bastard but I just keep digging deeper I just keep digging deeper Feed the crows

All is glory 05:37
Behold the fowls of the air how they grow They neither sow nor reap Behold the fowls of the air how they grow On fruit of (the) fields they feed All is glory Consider the lilies of (the) field, how they grow They neither toil nor spin Consider the lilies of (the) field, how they grow (Now) look at the clothes they’re in All is glory Imagine the worms of the graves how they grow They slither and they creep Imagine the worms of the graves how they grow On flesh in (the) ground they feed All is glory

When man rose from the clay he was in He gathered the spoils of the earth Alluvial treasures he kept Closer to his heart than his friends Auric revelations come to us Stronger than a narcotic high Pushing treasures ever forward The lure of gold keeps us going on

Preparation Come raise the chalice high Prepare the sacrifice Come raise the chalice high Prepare the bread and wine Liturgy of preparation The glory of the earth hath shown on thee Dealba me, Domine Liturgy of the Catechumens Blessed are the ones who are deep in the earth Their souls will dwell amid good things Liturgy of the Faithfull Lift up your hearts we lift them to the earth Let us stand well we’ve seen true light The summoning of Ouroboros You’e been asleep for oh so many years It’s time to wake and claim your throne Rebuild the temple from your arctic den Foundations built on ice and fire Summon the core lift it above the earth Let us have faith we’ve seen true light The rise of Ouroboros Ouroboros rising Let the twilight come Ouroboros rising Rise up from the core Ouroboros rising As above below Ouroboros rising Life and death are one

We have seen all the forces that justify fear We have seen all the saints they parade through their streets We have felt all the cold that is chilling their bones And we traveled the roads that will take them home We have seen all the forces that justify fear We have seen all the saints they parade through their streets We have felt all the cold that is chilling their bones And we traveled the roads that will take them home Waiting for the servant to be master takes so long Hope is rising and falling At 4000 mtrs it’s so cold At 4000 mtrs there’s no hope
