Psalm (Maggots Lair) - Lyrics by Christian Death


Lyrics
R.
Williams/
Paris
After murder, we encounterthe great mystery
That which surpasses the humanexperience, the human disease
Directly before, a moment ortwo after and essentiallyduring murder - great mysteriesrevealed
Animal introduction, the firstprehistoric urge instilled atbirththe first cries of freedom
If only from the womb
And birth and death do not end it
This transgression is perhapsthe first
And final step in the evolutionary stage
Before and after reincarnation
Seen through the muderer's eyes...
The only true free spirit
Dark horse rider
Maggot's lair - blindess
The first incision fulfills the need for the last
Seen through animal eyes
And God's eye
Through the murderer's eye
The first incision fulfills theneed...
And God's eye
The lord is my shepherd;I shall always want
He maketh me to lie inwait for rapture
He leadeth me to vilewaters, He destroyethmy soul, He leadeth mein the path of blindnessfor his name's sake
In the valley of theshadow of death
Thou appeareth before me
In robes of silicon andrust
Thou doth defile me asno other has before thee
I fear all life-for thou art with me
Thy rod and staff serveto defeat me
In the presence of mineenemies
Thou annointest my head with scalding oils
My blood runneth over
Surely goodness andmercy shal
Forsake me all the daysof my life
And I shall dwell underground, under foot
Forever in the presence of mine enemies
