Cathedral - Melancholy Emperor Lyrics

Artist: Cathedral

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Lee Robert Dorrian, Garry Jennings

Blazing ball of fire, final bang ignites
Fleets of hungry angels feast on earth like flies
Burning soul of karma, furnace of mankind
Human skull and crossbones, treasures left behind

Holy Father reaps earth's seed
Sacred Mother spreads his disease

Religious inferno, burial of mind
Mental crucifixion, love destroyed by lies
Decomposing morals mummified in time
Lord of retribution, judge us for our crimes

Holy Father reaps earth's seed
Sacred Mother spreads his disease

Master of ceremonies
Awakens from eternal night
For our sins we pay the price
Society it's time to die, oh

Yeah, fuck, melancholy emperor, king of our demise
Arises from deep shadows bearing end time scythe
Skull of ancient wisdom, cloaked in funeral sky
Spreads his wings wide open, engulfs the cosmos wide

Holy Father, reaps earth's seed
Sacred Mother spreads his disease

Holy Father, reaps earth's seed
Sacred Mother spreads his disease
