I am the first. I am the last. The passage has occurred. I am the knowing. I am the lost. I am the honored. I am the scorned. Look to the Guardian of the cautious West The White Tiger preys the autumn winds Eyes pierce the hidden world Claws cut like Virtue's sword Look to the Guardian from the North Abyss The Black Serpent carries winter's kiss The frozen earth like a snake that sleeps A thousand years and the gift of speech The clash of worlds is at hand. I am the first. I am the last. The passage has occurred. I am the knowing. I am the lost. I am the honored. I am the scorned. Look to the Guardian of the ancient East The Blue Dragon forges Spring's release Reigning shower and the soul of rain The forest sprouts to life again Look to the Guardian soaring from the South The Red Bird lost phoenix from the fire Knowledge fortune all seed's source Song soothes all hallowed force The clash of worlds is at hand.

Faith And The Muse (1999, Evidence Of Heaven) Shattered In Aspect It's time to let go Time to spend some time alone Farbeit to explain what has been done And what is illusion We have outlived ourselves By many a ruined year The future ripped from a tattered page Like the violence in dream-dead eyes The reflections of a thousand tangled views Cause and effect Like the diamond that cuts the light Radiation from a single mind We could outlive ourselves By many a ruined year Acting out a tedious wish long fulfilled Over and over and over again It's time to let go Time to spend some time alone Reconsider what could be done Unbind the imagination We're ready for a new age of innocence

Faith and the Muse - Cernunnos [lyrics] A song about the celtic god Cernunnos: Cernunnos (also Cernenus and Cern) is a pagan Celtic god whose representations were widespread in the ancient Celtic lands of western Europe. As a horned god, Cernunnos is associated with horned male animals, especially stags and the ram-horned snake; this and other attributes associate him with produce and fertility. *All rights to their respective owners, no copyright infringement intended, I own nothing!* ____________________________________ Beneath the sediment of eons In ancient repose My trust lay eroded by age The old glory faded And past times forgotten My reign given way to my rage Harmonious the centuries The land and I were one My soil, my water, my air Bringer of light And master of night In balance, the earth in my care But with the passing of days A new wind came blowing With whispers of change on its wing This tide of corruption Laid siege to my world Usurping the throne of a king Your new gods, your new ways All seek to dispel me With doctrines of fear built on lies The hidden one, no longer I claim my dominion To the sun of your age, I arise Of your anger Your ignorance Your blindness Your greed Your progress Your conquest Your mania Your need Your sorrow Your sickness Your final, parting breath Your hatred Your bloodshed Your future Your death I will have none I will have none I will have none I will have none I, dread lord of shadows With broken spell Unto this rotting age I <b>...</b>

FAITH AND THE MUSE Sredni Vashtar goth rock darkwave deathrock

great song by F&TM ....... How carelessly the bound daylight caresses Oblivious to wandering eyes extinguished Free me reckless with the night Elusive scenes enkindled burst to fire Where splendor casts umbrageous twin And love sparks radiance To guide the heart from within All in search for you Eve of brilliance Till the morning proves indifference For the sparks die Leaving shadows in my vision How dutifully the dull sunlight chastises Adopted wings that dare arise with promise Incandescent I represent Pandora's uninformed enlightenment And fears that creep about my flame Evanesce until the dawn calls them Home again bearing thoughts of you And I'm helpless to see Unbecoming of me Blindly mythicizing Etiolation emphasized by merrythoughts Once broken by moonlight Oh brighter to have never loved Than gather ghosts of the blinding Relentless sun idealized in you And I can't bear to see Unbecoming of me Love is not dead

"Kodama" by Faith and the Muse from the album Ankoku Butoh (2009) ~~~~ Kodama (lyrics) Come all you mortals and gather round To hear the tale of the Spiral Down The ancient heart within us all Forced to splinter into nothing at all Come the Tall Tale Industry There was Spirit and the Machine The mechanical philistine That demanded for order and perfection Power over the great unseen Come the Tall Tale Industry The Spirit was made obsolete When the machine hatched a heartless scheme That understood she could be enslaved To do just what she does so naturally Under its authority They turned her into a factory Tradition ruled that she Ought To Be The farce of law that she give her sons One by one Unwillingly Until she's done To the Tall Tale Industry You'll give your dreams up one by one To the machine until you're gone The horrors of etiquette, how to speak and think Who to marry and what to eat To the Tall Tale Industry Come children, To hear the warped generation Should they realize they were forced to Pass on such a twisted belief Just because it's always been So it's the Tall Tale Industry Tradition, Laws and Lies The prison of Civility Tall Tale Industry

Faith and the muse

Yet another awesome band, with an awesome song. Here are the lyrics: What can be offered to the Lost? A tiny piece of Divinity? But what - just to watch Them bring it to its knees? To lose it without ever knowing what power it may possess? Yes, kill it quickly - Let it fall to the moment of Crisis When what one has not chosen but accepts as their existance Begins to show its scars And the plans and the dreams of the Ideal Life Have crumbled away. Fall deeply into the Mundane - Don't let the screaming that riots within have a voice - Instead drown it in satisfying ridiculous lust - Sudden desires that well up which tell one That they must give in Or life will end without meaning. But these desires are second-hand - tired - designed... A culture of repression with no imagination Looks to Destruction To feel alive. The world will end... They Say. so why not watch it burn? Heavy is the head that wears the crown.

â–“â–“ album: the burning season â–“â–“ 2003 â–“â–“ www.mercyground.com [ lyrics It's the impossibility of Womanhood that vexes me. The child bride symbol The ability to read eyes and minds. Curves more fluid than desert waves The tiny bones of the wrist The organic movement to paint the lips. But the heart A woman's heart (is) Much older than the hollow'd trees. I am the Queen who fell upon her sword My servants and descendants each took their turn a glorious wave. But anger is such energy, beautiful if controlled A slow simmer, the sharpening of teeth. But the heart A woman's heart Has the patience of the black.. black sea. Our hands are tied. Our voices mute. Such was our fate when they cut off our head. Little sisters you seem so estranged. Some may dress and act the glamour'd part but they'll never have A woman's heart. A woman's heart Burns deadlier than the sleeping beast. Hang your head in shame Every time you break another woman's heart ]

From the explosive new album Ankoku Butoh. Oh how fortunate we are, Strange creatures in this strangest time! The Noble Primitives by choice Seen from the outside with no regard Disappointment in those watchful eyes Shaking heads of the dim-lived lives Such is their fear of breaking free Keep our Truth under lock and key All this will Change All this will wash away the sins of the Corrupt Age Don't be afraid We are the Underground Their world is what they've made They've shattered us for generations Bullied conformity - the spider over the flame Enough to tear our hearts to splinters Force the choice but don't dare ask why Close your eyes and let the laws dictate By God or by Man: mass-manipulate But to us, the Barbarians of Idealism, Life holds its throat at bay All this will Change All this will wash away the sins of this Dying Age Don't be afraid We are the Underground Their Hell is what they've made We are the Underground We are the Underground And now we'll watch their fortress crumble The flaming pyres have fettered out, Relics of gavel and cross - no more! We've born our smiles but silently waged war We are the Savages, the true civilized Let those called "sane" now lose their minds For we know who we are and can change at will Our minds and our hearts will dream what we dare All this will Change All this will wash away and we will build again Don't be afraid We are the Underground Our world is what we make Faith and the Muse is an American, underground gothic <b>...</b>
