Vertigo: A Mithraic Ritual Songtext
von Terzij de Horde

The movements of the world
Rise and tower over me
Lovecraftian gods
Inspiring vertigo

Mindless demons flourish
In spaces beyond reason
From whence no thought
Can return unharmed

And cut off at night
From gravity and the stars
I shrink into meditation
Before the grinning white face
Of this endless inhumanity


And cut off the night
From gravity and the stars
I retrun to this cathartic terror
This seasonless equinox

This dread incarnation
Of universal suicide
Conspiring with dreams
For the reins of my mind

A coming of age
A crossing of worlds
I will make this devourer
My vernal sacrifice

Come, be revealed

Where the howling avatars
Of my most desperate passions
Hold court in the bowels of my spirit

And I wade in the blood
Of the conqueror leech
And like Mithras bring forth
Another unsteady awakening
