- - - THE ORDER OF GASH - - -
"We have such sights to show you."
On the fiery steps of
Lucifer's cathedral
Eager masses gather for Him
Draped in chains and black leathers
Infernal faces answer the call
Torment awaits for those
With the blood of the Seraphim
"The suffering of strangers, the agony of friends. There is a secret song at the center of the world and its sound is like razors through flesh."
We are the order of Gash
Lord Lucifer's chosen
The blessed and the damned alike
Modify broken bodies
Taint the lamb's blood and dip it in sin
Along the trail of bones
The Hell Priest claims flesh that's ripe
"The beauty of suffering."
Suffer in denial
As the chains rip the flesh
Invigoration
When pain becomes pleasure
The lamentations
Are the songs we treasure
The congregation
Yes, we are indeed, of the
Configuration
When your paltry God wept
Upon the cross, blood stained
Bitter tears did more than suffice
Suffering the sweet sorrow
We revel in agony and pain
Behold glorious sin
Those fortunate to pay the price
"The box... you opened it, we came."
Splendor and denial
As the chains rip the flesh
Invigoration
When pain becomes pleasure
The lamentations
Are the songs we treasure
The congregation
Yes, we are indeed, of the
Configuration
Alas, we are the damned
Blessed to taste desire
Every inch of tainted flesh
All the way to the marrow
We were baptized within the fire
Behold glorious pain
Maggots crawl just beneath the mesh
... of virgin skin ...
"But please, feel free, explore. We have eternity to know your flesh."
Savor the denial
Holy experience
No intervention
By hollow deities
The lamentations
They are the songs we bleed
The congregation
Yes, we are indeed, of the
Configuration
Suffer in denial
As the chains rip the flesh
Invigoration
When pain becomes pleasure
The lamentations
Are the songs we treasure
The congregation
We will watch indeed as the
Configuration
Tears your soul apart
