  			Verse: 
Dm  
Two thousand fattened years like maniacs, 
              Bb                           A 
Have despoiled our common grave. 
     Dm			Bb 
So now what necrophagous Second Coming backs, 
                        A       Dm 
From the cradle to enslave?  
 
Sickle constellations; 
Stud the belts that welt the sky. 
Whilst the bitter winter moon, 
Prowls the cloud, dead-eyed.  
Like shifting parent flesh,  
Under silk matricide...  
 
Watchful as she was upon Eden  
Where every rose arbour and orchard she swept  
Hid the hissing of a serpent Libido  
In an ancient tryst with catastrophe  
Soon the be kept  
 
A Refrain: Dm Fm 
 Fm                                      Dm 
Hear the hissing now on the breeze  
        F#m                                            Dm 
As through the plundered groves of the carnal  
        Fm                                        Dm          F#m 
Garden.     A fresh horror blows but ten billion souls  
                                                             Dm 
Are blind to see the rotting wood for the trees  
 
This is the theme to a better Armageddon  
Night chords rake the heavens  
PAN DAEMON AEAON  
 
A Refrain: Dm Fm 
And what use are prayers to that god?  
As devils bay consensus for the space to piss  
On your smouldering faith  
And the mouldering face  
Of this world long a paradise lost  
 
Chorus: 
Bb               A                Dm 
   This is the end of everything  
 Bb                                         A 
Hear the growing chord that a new dawn shall bring  
 
Verse: 
Dance macabre neat the tilt of the zodiac  
Now brighter stars shall reflect on our fate  
What sick nativities will be freed when those lights burn black?  
The dark side of the mirror always threw our malice back...  
 
Post Chorus: Piano (Played like the Chorus): 
I see the serpentine in your eyes  
The nature of the beast as revelations arrive  
 
C Refrain: 
         F#m           Dm 
Our screams shall trail to Angels 
               F#m         Dm     Fm       F#m 
For those damned in flames repay  
 
     Dm                             F#m   Dm Fm 
All sinners lose their lot on Judgement Day  
      F#m                       Dm 
We should have cut our looses as at Calvary  
            F#m                    Dm                  Fm 
But our hearts like heavy crosses held the vain belief  
F#m Dm 
 Salvation, like a promised nation  
 F#m         Dm     Fm 
Gleamed a claim away...  
 
(Played like C-Refrain): 
This is the end of everything you have ever known  
Buried like vanquished reason  
Death is season  
Drive like the drifting snow  
Peace, a fragile lover, left us fantasising war  
On our knees or another f**ker's shore  
Healing new flesh  
Read, then roared  
To a crooked cross and a Holy Cause  
What else be whipped to frenzy for?  
 
Chorus: 
This is the end of everything  
Rear the tragedies  
That the Seraphim shall sing  
 
Verse: 
Old adversaries  
Next to Eve  
Now they're clawing back  
I smell their coming  
As through webbed panes of meat  
Led by hoary Death  
They never left  
Dreaming sodomies  
To impress on human failure  
When we've bled upon our knees  
 
Verse: 
Tablatures of gravel law  
Shall see Gehennah paved  
When empires fall  
And nightmares crawl  
From the cradle to enslave....  
 
Chorus: 
This is the end of everything 
 
(Repeat until end):
