Lyrics of And then he falleth
Theatre Of Tragedy
"be my kin free fro carnal sin,
Bride the thoughts of master."
"there hath past away a glore fro the earth;
A glore that in the hearts and minds of men,
Men demented - blindfolded by light,
Hourisheth as weed in their well-groom'd garihs."
"might i too was blindfolded ere,
Tho' years have master'd me
A masque of this to fashion:
Seer blest, thou best philosopher!"
"tis the divine comedy -
The fool and the mocking court:
Fool, kneel now, and ring thy bells!:
We hold the earth to heaven away."
"the quality of mercy and absolution,
Whence cometh such qualities?
Build thyself a mirror in which
Solely wanton images of thy desire appear!"
"tis is divine tragedy -
The fool and the rocking court:
Fool, kneel now, and ring thy bells!:
Make us guffaw at thy futile follies,
Yet for our blunders - oh, in shame;
Earth beareth no balm for mistakes -
We hold the earth to hell away."
- that cross you wear around your neck;
Is it only a decoration, or are you a true christian believer?
- yes, i believe - truly
- then i want you to remove it at once!
And never to wear it within this castle again!
Do you know how a falcon is trained my dear?
Her eyes are sown shut. blinded temporarily
She suffers the whims of her god patiently,
Until her will is submerged and she learns to serve -
As your god taught and blinded you with crosses.
- you had me take off my cross because it offended...
- it offended no-one. no - it simply appears
To me to be discourteous to... to wear
The symbol of a deity long dead.
My ancestors tried to find it. and to open
The door that separates us from our creator.
- but you need no doors to find god. if you believe...
- believe?! if you believe you are gullible.
Can you look around this world and believe
In the goodness of a god who rules it?
Famine, pestilence, war, disease and death!
They rule this world.
- there is also love and life and hope.
- very little hope i assure you. no.
If a god of love and life ever did exist...
He is long since dead.
Someone... something rules in his place.
"believe? in a deity long dead? -
I would rather be a pagan suckled in creeds outworn;
With faartytales fill'd up in head:
Thoughts of the book stillborn."
"shadow of annoyance -
Ne'er come hither
...and then he falleth,
He falleth like lucifer
Ne'er to ascend again..."
