Last Rites - The Iron Tree Songtexte

Hanging on the Iron Tree
Fat white worms devour me
Drowning in the Sea of Blood
Buried in the poisoned mud

I was taken to the South
Serpents came from my mouth
Dropped in the River of Fire
And I heard the Angels Choir

The darkness was dispersed
And I became immersed
In the glare of Seven Suns
Cherubim and Seraphim

I saw the Virgin Mary
She was weeping very bitterly
I asked her why are you weeping?
Why did you come?

And the Holy Virgin said to me
I have come down here to see
The torments suffered by the weak
By those who turned the other cheek

Ten thousand Angels began to sing
A multitude of bells began to ring
The divine procession turned away
And took with them the light of day
