Lyrics - ...and Shineth Unto The Cold Cometh... by Absu

Laughter from
Esharra is convincing, but unclaimed.
The last of
Ka drifts across the river-
Our sky outside has not been named.
Two
Ugalla-demons start their battle-
Tempest of the creek is floored in flames.
Winds of
Imhullu foretold their weather-
Sea-dwelling floods reply without names.
Taste the salty tides of the
Apzu-
Alight seven tablets wearing steel of lame.
Laughter from
Esharra is convincing, but unclaimed.6000 years past away to let the
Utu tribeshear the lying words against
Azzta's truth.
Ea's eye is the way...
We are the ones who know the mountain passes,and we'll search the battlefields,in order to find the essential weapons corroded within the tan dust.
Marduk,
Anu,
Ellil, and
Ea watch us all to test our bold and drastic strength,so
Tiamat sneers with the hate and commands the storm-chariot of the horses.
Their teeth and heart carry poison to strike us down,but cannot fill our veins with venom.
We warned you twice:"
We
Command
The
Mushussu!""
Sharp
Of
Tooth
And
Strike
Of
Fang!""
Horned
Serpent
Of
The
Unclaimed!""
Shine!"
Make a path, fix the hour, and raise the seed
The dragon's semen is what you drink to be crowned by night"
Belet-ili,
O great pythoness, kiss me!""
Belet-ili,
O great pythoness, kiss me!"
With the billowing fog, the abyss speaks below
Your wings of force cannot warp you through the times"
Belet-ili,
O great pythoness, caress me!""
Belet-ili,
O great pythoness, caress me!"
In the ninth aeon,
Esharra ceases the laughter
Then,
Imhulla assembles the blazing cycllone"
Belet-ili,
O great pythoness, embrace me!""
Belet-ili,
O great pythoness, embrace me!"
Now you are spiritually drunk from the dragon's semen,
So set your arrow in the bow and coat it with the poison"
Belet-ili,
O great pythoness, clutch me!""
Belet-ili,
O great pythoness, clutch me!"...
And
Shineth
Unto
The
Cold
Cometh...
