Thou Shalt Be Cursed Songtext
von Curse Upon a Prayer

Towards the eye of night
Where a peaceful silence veils the agony & woe
O′ Sacred fire with a darkening glow
Through eclipse of all stars, thou shalt shine forevermore Alas!
My mourning god!
Thy tears storm 'pon me
As I walk through this valley of the shadow of my own death
With His restless flame scorching my heart
To a darker shade of black
And thus every knee shall bow to me...
"Forsaking the right way, I have gone astray
To quench every ray of light & paint the sun gray"
Now I have come to sow thy desert with my bitter seed
And eagerly thou shalt reap the rotten fruits;
My blessing shall come ′pon thee & overtake thee
Thus faithfully thou shalt speak all of my words And on this day thou may seek
Death but shall not find it!
Thou may long to die but Death shall flee!
Away from light thou shalt wander, in hunger
Towards the eye of pitch black night
The Sacred Splendour in Darkness!
"I hear His voice whispering unto me
The Abyss in my veins, filling the black chambers of my heart
O' how it beats only by defiling everything my pale hand may reach
Beneath the deformed face of god himself...
Come!
Come to me in thirst, my sons!
Step forth & swallow this curse!
Become as one! To none of thy empty gods thou shalt sing praise
For thou shalt not be saved!"
