The Devil's Blood Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.Rake Your Nails Across The Firmament

Lyricist:Selim Lemouchi

Awake now, you who sent me down
From the hills into the towns
Awake now, you whose scent meets
With that of the kills in the downs

I did not awake you through the winter
I have let you wander by yourself through the summer

In spring and fall you are mine

Awake now, you whose name breaks the waves
Awake now, you whose name sounds like thunder
I did give unto you your crown, the seventh diadem
I have taken from you, the mantle of God

In blood and grief you are mine


2.The Anti-Kosmik Magick

Lyricist:Selim Lemouchi

Dark mother of the endless sea
I bow down to kneel before thee
I shake and I tremble in thy sight

Companion to the ancient ones
Your darkness is like a thousand suns
Pain and doom in the light of the moon

On the steps to the burning grounds
I was lost but now I am found
No more shall I hang my head in shame

The ash and smoke take my breath away
And as my blood starts to mix with the clay
I tear these chains away

Horror and laughter
Cyanide and wine
Dark possession, my life is thine

On the steps to the burning grounds
I was lost but now I am found
No more shall I hang my head in shame

The ash and smoke take my breath away
And as my blood starts to mix with the clay
I tear these chains away


3.I Ll Be Your Ghost

Lyricist:Selim Lemouchi

I'd walk over broken glass for you
I'd crawl over burning coals for you
I'd do all the things you'd have me do
And I would gladly give my life for you

Lay me on your bed of nails
Tie me to your whipping post
I'll let you kill me
And I'll be your ghost

I'd hang my self in iron chains for you
I'd whip my self with razor wire for you
If you'd only promise to kiss my wounds
I would gladly give my life to you

Oh, enough of this torment
I am praying on broken knees
Let this cup pass my lips, oh Lord
I wish only to be with thee


4.The Yonder Beckons

Lyricist:Selim Lemouchi

Long have I waited for the hour to strike
For the stars to grow tired and fall
Since the birth of the Earth have I waited
For the sands of its time to run low but tonight I shall wait no
more

I'm leaving now on a trail to sulphur and salt
Yes, I'm leaving to the havens where all things known halt
The yonder beckons, the twilight oceans call
To forbidden shores I'll set my course

I've seen enough of your little world
How it helplessly in the darkness twirls
But from the roaring depths beyond the known
My maker calls, it's time to go

I'm leaving now, the sun is sinking in the west
Yes, I'm leaving, to hell with all the rest
The yonder beckons, the twilight oceans call
Towards forbidden shores I'll set my course

The winds of Apep are upon my sail
From beneath the waves I hear the old ones sing their song
And in the distance now the seventh lighthouse burn
That is where the oceans end and that is where I yearn

There begins a journey long past the seventh and ever on
The yonder beckons, I can hear its roaring wail
From the starless spheres of nothing
Where the serpent lets loose its tail


5.Evermore

Lyricist:Selim Lemouchi

Raging fire, burning souls
Twisted eyes as love unfolds
I am creeping towards my end
Through black mist I shall ascend

The time of no time evermore
The time of no time evermore

Can you see the angels coming?
For evermore
Can you hear the drums a'drumming?
For evermore

Can you hear the Devil's faithful calling?
For evermore
Can you hear his death bell ring?
For evermore

The time of no time evermore
The time of no time evermore
Time of no time for evermore
The time of no time evermore

So now the grounds are wet with blood
And so my hands are wet with lust
Our loins explode with primordial heat
Rejoice as snakes coil amongst our feet

Slaves to the nature of the beast
Deathsexbizarre lycanthropy
Razor love and desires free
We are bound in fire, you and me

The time of no time evermore
The time of no time evermore
Time of no time for evermore
The time of no time evermore


6.Feeding The Fire With Tears & Blood

Lyricist:Selim Lemouchi

We are at the summit of the highest mountain
We are at the bottom of the deepest lake
We are at the center of the raging fire
We are at the outskirts to claim our stake

We are born of joy and frustration
We are born of love and desperation
We are born of hate and perseverance
We are born of anger and deliverance

Feeding the fire with tears and blood
Feeding the fire with tears and blood

We are on the outside waiting
We are on the inside hiding
We are on the threshold of knowing
We are on the verge of

Feeding the fire with tears and blood
Feeding the fire with tears and blood


7.Queen Of My Burning Heart

Lyricist:Selim Lemouchi

Dressed in black, I stand before her
The smell of blood like a languid sea
The sickly sweet stench of death
I taint the air with labored breath

A thousand names, a thousand songs
In the dead of night we share her tunes
Love and death, blood and fire
The pleasure of this dark desire

Can't you feel her darkness creeping?
Can't you hear her voices calling?
Must you dream of a world without her?
Won't you bask in her flames?

The twilight times, the witching hour
Praise her might, it is time
A million years, I will serve my queen forever
A million years, I will serve my queen forever

I can't hear your words of warning
The beating of my heart drowns all sound
I cannot see your guiding light
The burning of my soul outshines all stars

A thousand names, a thousand songs
In the dead of night we share her tunes
Love and death, blood and fire
The pleasure of this dark desire

The twilight times, the witching hour
Praise her might, it is time
A million years, I will serve my queen forever
A million years, I will serve my queen forever


8.Christ Or Cocaine

Lyricist:Selim Lemouchi

Hedonistic fire in the dead of night
I gave my soul away
I've been stripped of all but lust
And I've seen Hell today

It had a toilet seat and a lock on the door
And it made me feel okay
I know they had it in for me
But I love their sweet decay

I see a tunnel at the end of the light
And it's driving me insane
Just tell me If I'm wrong or I'm right
And if it's Christ or cocaine

The lies we tell to secure our fate
Are never far behind us
The things we say and the things we do
Will in the end blind us

Do you think you're a sinner or a saint?
Do you even think you could see?
Or would you rather step into my church
And go to Hell with me


9.Rake Your Nails Across The Firmament

Lyricist:Selim Lemouchi

Awake now, you who sent me down
From the hills into the towns
Awake now, you whose scent meets
With that of the kills in the downs

I did not awake you through the winter
I have let you wander by yourself through the summer

In spring and fall you are mine

Awake now, you whose name breaks the waves
Awake now, you whose name sounds like thunder
I did give unto you your crown, the seventh diadem
I have taken from you, the mantle of God

In blood and grief you are mine
