Tethered to this pilot orb of molten anthropoid refuse
As fire to a flame
The union of carbon is forged
Shaman may never annul the marriage of one to another
Spirit warriors march to Atlantis
The bone machine shall rise
From the battle of commons, to the price of rage
As casualties of myth and indignation
Goliath is resized
Phoenix fire ashes prance from dust to dust
Over uterus urns of trust
And the amber gates of heaven
And the damsels of forgotten promise
as casualties of myth in the celluloid mist
Deliver us from evil
Adorn the hall of minion crusaders
In lavender and treacle
I ride my Chimera through the Arctic tempest xenon
In jingle jangle enigma stigmata
Until the light of love burns out
Under pith helmets worn of albino profits
Lost in folly and tear
The nexus chain is dragging fear
Across the lint I capture
And I rise is shadow rapture
