Cold Heaven

Babylon Whores Cold Heaven Lyrics
1.Babylon Astronaut

Two feet have I
Pillars of putrid meat
Standing so tall among my
Icons of filth
With gargoyle eyes
I see
The Christ hes smiling at me
His phosphorous grin
An absolution for all my sins
And in this room
The walls covered with flies
Im seen through their myriad eyes
The alien eyes
Im seen somewhere else
Seen through the windows of Hell
Few million light years from home
I am searching for a different kind of
Insanity
The Babylon astronaut
Could you leave it all behind?
(There is no evil)
I see the stars painted on the windows glass
Seven planets supporting the nothingness
And I am happy
Nothing more nothing less
(There is no evil)
Something came to my room
As flies on the ceiling
Coming down on me
One by one
And their hairy limbs
Crawling on my naked skin
The motherfuckers screwing on me
Insect sex
No
I wont move
As my ears are laden with eggs
Close my eyes
And dream of being back in the womb
"Under the juniper trees
Talking cats and silver boots filled with
Blood"
Could you leave it all behind?
Under another sun Ill grow saturnine
Lay siege to heaven in fever dreams
And I smash my head
Into the windows glass
And see the stars coming down at last


2.Beyond The Sun

If a tree falls down
Does it make a sound
If theres no one to see
And If Im all alone
Everybodys gone
Then its the real me
Right?
And if you found yourself
To be like no one else
Who would that no one be
And if you blew your cool
With life as an aprils fool
The truth could be seen
Right?
Aint no world in a grain of sand
No flowers to hold in our hands
Didnt got no million in prizes
The shoe didnt fit in none of the sizes
Pull down the shade on your window
Go paint it a smiling face
Lose yourself in the shadows like days

And everything is new and bright
Like vomit kisses on summer nights
A tooth for an eye an eye for tooth
A truth for an eye a lie for a tooth
They say
If there is a Beast
And your souls diseased
Would you take its hand
If God dont love you
Just be a man
And be God damned
Oh wont you let it come
Say hi, the enemy of sun
Oh its there just look deep within
Growing bigger with your feeble sins
Pull out your heart through the rib cage
Go paint it a smiling face
Leave a scarab in its place
Would you believe that the earth is hollow
And our path is the straight and narrow
Tooth fairies and Santa Claus
Theres trolls blood in all of us
Would you believe that theres nothing more for us
No more hate
No more love
No fight and fuss
When everything is said, denied and done
Beyond the sun


3.Deviltry

"Oh rose, thou art sick
The invisible worm that flies in the night
In the howling storm
Has found out thy bed of crimson joy
And his dark secret love
Doth life destroy"
(Wm. Blake)
Oh fallen star of wormwood grace
Grant me the smile of Janus face
Give me a twin identity
A false integrity
To my city set upon the hill
With a godlike view at my own will
Give me the cure for the worlds pain
Give me the god of Cain
For damned in forbearance I have crawled
Half awake Ive gotten old
I got the gum card of every sin
Sent for the Christ to win
Deviltry
Some simple deviltry
Black deviltry
The vice of kings and knaves
The king of kings and knaves
Bunch of slaves
For I got no promises to keep
Wouldnt bother to sow even less to reap
And I know theres sense in being sane
Theres reality to blame
But I still got something resembling pride
So one more time give me a ride
Crush in my nasal bone and ride
Rattle my spine


4.Enchiridion For A Common Man

Need me a bar on an alleyway
Death on a pale horse to ride away
Disease bacteria culture dip plate
Bagged take away
And its all right
Just let it ride
A fleet of dragon barges at berth
To sail off the edge of the earth
Setting sail for some bad luck
Could fuck some mean shit up
And its all right
Just let it ride

If I should lose my very soul
In some distant port of call
I would still find my way home
If I took pride and I would fall
My wings could not be shorn
My heaven would just be cold
Saw life as a girl from the avenue
Daddys sunshine with eyes of blue
Been more content with a cross eyed witch
Back in an alley ditch
And its all right
Just let it ride
For all the things Ive said and known
I guess some reason could be shown
Life can be easy
Life can be kind
Plain sodomy in the behind

Show me a bar on the alleyway
A cross eyed witch to steal my soul away
For I could die on an alleyway
With a smile on my lips
For all the yesterdays
Give me a bar on an alleyway


5.Flesh Of A Swine

Shiny like marble kissed by sea
Some Castaneda dreams
By William Burroughs means
Feeding the devil with a spoon
It is the length
Not the skill nor stealth or strength
Like,
Do you got what it takes to know yourself
To kill the universe
You try to twist into a curse?
True flesh of a swine fattened on her brood
Will bark at the sun howl the moon
Go grasp the meaning of universe
Or kill thyself
No four and nine is a twelve
No ten and three is a twelve
The new born moon did burn you blind
A Horus of plucked out eye
Trying to map the sky
To find a place to go when he dies
Bride wealth of the sun for the wife you wed -
A templars Baphomet
Crown that fits no head
Pork jelly fed
No suckling to sodomy and sin
Cheap wine pissed in the wind
Gonna get it right
For true flesh of a swine fattened on her brood
Will bark at the sun howl the moon
Go grasp the meaning of universe
Or kill thyself
Seasons they change
Winter did come
Washed down with blood
Gulped down your sun
And ogre brood souls
Gnaw cheese from the moon
Dream of wells by the road
In darkened bedrooms
But no coffin lid nails
No n demon names
Create no interest in hell
You got nothing to sell
For no nine and fours twelve
No ten and threes twelve
No such thing as yourself
Kill the universe
Get it right


6.In Arcadia Ego

In Arcadia ego
Twisted the rose did grow
Sucked up the sap of this world
Blood red the petals pearled
With some wisdom absurd
And outside these walls
The night took the rose
Bound it with moonlight
And cut it up with the morning star
In Arcadia ego
A rose to drown in snow
A sepulchre by the sea
Marble to slumber beneath
Lulled by a mountain stream
And outside these walls
The night knows us all
In dark woods wandering
Detached of our soul
"Pour wine and dance if manhood still have pride
Bring roses if the rose be yet in bloom
All wisdom shut into his onyx eyes
Our Father Rosicross sleeps in his tomb"
(W.B.Yeats, Frater D.E.D.I.)
In Arcadia ego
How fast the years did go
And how bitter is the wind
Blowing from shores of Arcady
Outside these walls
The night knows us all
In dark woods the roses grow
In hardship the soul


7.Metatron

Given to crescent moon
Chaldean echoes of spectral gloom
Like a pen pal of the gods
No horns no reply
Flowers of sorcery
Like pearls before the swine
Defying space and time
Sez the pineal gland of mine
Like,
Given to dreaming witches lie
Its sweet to close your weary eyes
Given to pentacles and more
Drunk with the blood of the whore
Gimme some Metatron
Damn my immortal soul
But show me something that I dont know
Gimme some Metatron
Given to waning moon
Septuagint whispers of impending doom
Cautes and Cautopates
A shit load of bad ass deities
Wore out my shovel
Burying monsters where they popped up
And its OK
Doesnt matter anyway
For Babalon above
For Babalon below
Gimme some Metatron
