lyrics

Lemegeton, Picatrix, Abramelin.

See this dread ordeal? It is impossible.
Yet I face it all the god damn same, praise be.
If I'm punished for that name in vain,
I think all I could muster, is to smile and weakly laugh at him,
Could things really get much worse?

Through plagues and plights, we struggle on,
Through banes and blights, keep struggling on,
Through plagues and plights, oh we struggle on,
Fuck banes and blights, oh we struggle on, keep struggling on.

Towering beinn, hellish rain, cloak pulled tight,
Against the image of a useless sun the peak looms ever tall and proud,
Slow decline, toilsome climb, yet not forgone,
Know that this man still saunters on.

Towering beinn. hellish rain, cloak ripped to shreds,
I spot the gleaming holy highland ore and gather it with what's left of my strength,
Final steps, promise kept, her hands reach out,
Oh lady alchemist, build me something new.

Dimmest spark, pull your weight, recall the distance not the aim,
Tended spark, cause a clash, persistence its own end,
The journey burns like bright ash.

Through plagues and plights, we struggle on,
Through banes and blights, keep struggling on,
Through plagues and plights, oh we struggle on,
Fuck banes and blights, oh we struggle on, keep struggling on.

The blessed replacement a failure, and yet,
If this dread ordeal could be endured,
Then perhaps the rest can as well...
