Cradle Of Filth - Babylon A.D. (So Glad For The Madness) Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • I bled on a pivotal stretch
  • Like a clockwork Christ
  • Bears sore stigmata, bored
  • And as I threw Job, I drove
  • Myself to a martyred wretch
  • To see if I drew pity
  • Or pretty litanies from the Lord
  • So the plot sickened
  • With the coming of days
  • Ill millennia thickened
  • With the claret I sprayed
  • And though they saw red
  • I left a dirty white stain
  • A splintered knot in the grain
  • On Eden's marital aid
  • So glad for the madness
  • So glad for the madness
  • I walked the walks ***** to the moon
  • In Sodom and Babylon
  • And through rich whores and corridors
  • Of the Vatican
  • I led a sordid Borgia on
  • I read the Urilia text
  • So that mortals wormed
  • As livebait for the dead
  • And as I broke hope, I chocked
  • Another Pope with manna peel
  • Dictating to DeSade
  • In the dark entrails of the Bastille
  • And as He wrote, I smote
  • A royal blow to the heads of France
  • And in the sheen of guillotines
  • I saw others, fallen, dance
  • I was an incurable
  • Necromantic old fool
  • A phagadaena that crawled
  • Drooling over the past
  • A rabid wolf in a shawl
  • A razor's edge to the rule
  • That the stars overall
  • Were never destined to last
  • So glad for the madness
  • So glad for the madness
  • I furnaced dreams, a poet, foe of sleep
  • Turning sermons with the smell
  • Of Witchfinder fingers
  • Where bad memories lingered
  • Burning, as when Dante
  • Was freed to map Hell
  • I sired schemes and the means
  • To catch sight of the seams
  • And the vagaries inbetween...
  • And midst the lips and the curls
  • Of this cunt of a world
  • In glimpses I would see
  • A nymph with eyes for me
  • Eyes of fire that set all life aflame
  • Lights that surpassed art
  • In sight, that no intense device of pain
  • Could prise their secrets from my heart
  • I knew not Her name
  • Though her kiss was the same
  • Without a whisper of shame
  • As either Virtue of Sin's
  • And pressed to Her curve
  • I felt my destiny swere
  • From damnation reserved
  • To a permanent grin...
  • So glad for the madness
  • So glad for the madness
