Personal preference, I suppose, but Damnation wasn't particularly good lyrically in my opinion. They weren't bad, but nowhere near as good as on other albums!
The lyrics to Babalon AD were the only stand-out ones on that album.
André Raven-Haired said:I think damnation and a day is full of memorable verses. i'll just leave here my favorites:
- "Like the night 'twixt vice and Virtue, When Her kiss became a scar" » Hurt And Virtue
- "Thou art no more an angel filled with light, but a leech to be abhorred, And thou shalt suffer My burning will"...Quoth this raven: "Nevermore"... Never fucking more » An Enemy Led The Tempest
- "Her name was Sin, A warming spurt of mantras" » Better to Reign in Hell

That's one of my favorites, for my is the perfect ending for the album, the last verse with the calm instrumental really seems awsome to me :D
Chase Fradette said:The Smoke of Her Burning:
Weld the gates to heaven shut
The abyss leers in hissing ruts
Unhilt the black grimoire of death
Inscribe all names that God has left
I lived the drams of nymphs and men
But now the nightmares come again
Now the nightmares come again...

Don't you think that "Attack!" was epical? Man just listen to the song!

I sip the blood-red wine
My thoughts weigh heavy with the burden of time...
....In the dark, odiferous earth (The Forest Whispers my Name)
Archangel, snare the flesh Suck dry the ebbing wound
Leave them lifeless and broken My beloved...
Oh, how I have craved for you You so pure and other-worldly with your scent of Winter
Am I to bleed myself dry just to see your delight? (The Black Goddess rises)
To snatch the lambs of Christ
From where they fall... (A Dream of Wolves in the Snow)
"The most August sorcerers of Hades
Darkly seized for me a throne
And the upraised scythe so terribly scribed
Vengeance in Jesuit blood on stone
From this ransacked celestial temple
I hold the prophet's severed head unto all nations" (Heaven Torn Asunder)
She died to a sky dressed in flame
Eyes full of curses for her killers by choice
Who fell to their god o'er her vision and voice (Malice through the Looking glass)
"They call as I to thee...." (Dusk and her Embrace)
Twilight Through pagan city gates Bred shadows play like twining snake
By candlelight Thanateros rites Death seduced and chaos wakes.... (Beauty slept in Sodom)
But Elizabeth laughed, thirteen Autumns had passed
And She was a widow from god and His wrath, finally... (13 Autumns and a Widow)
But Heaven is never forever.. (Cruelty brought thee Orchids)
So begins the sibilant world Death knell... (Cthulhu Dawn)
What treachery this that She breathed no more?
Christ you bastard! (Saffron's Curse)
I licked Her wounds and ate Her rare (Amor e morte)
No! No! No!
Don't leave here in this storm weathered cell!
No! No! No!
With prophets and losses,
And dead men from crosses,
My fate is a preview of derelict Hell! (Tortured soul asylum)

"Remember with pride what thou art
Lest we forget in awe of our terrible past"
When Dark royalties drank of despair
Idols hewed down 'neath a desert god's stare
In thrall to revenges sworn there
What dreams could we father, when farther we fell
To nightmare... ?
"Well versed in misery
We have lain naked in darkest ravines
Now the sun has set in slumber. We delight
Like serpents in arousal
Coiled to strike at the light"
Now abyssed Lucifers master the earth
Uncloister jaded harlots once served
Enthralled by cruel raptures, rehearsed
Kiss slumbered beauty and weapon our thousand year curse...

Incense lit at perfection's feet has never burnt so sickly sweet as the fragrance of Her breath when Her lips met death with such imagination...*sighs*

"But visions and ambition never listened to submission and she was on a mission from the highest above to lord upon the slaughter like a sword through hissing water she arose where archers sought her for the death of love..."
"It's not without hate to crawl flat in the filth as other less basilisks fly and brothers are clapsed to the breast of a sylph as their royal lovers slither to die so shedding dead skin, working true colours loose renewing the red in their eyes they coil like sin within thinning excuse cold - blooded to sharpen the lies...uncivil serpents, race decievers disfigureheads varnished with fevers snake - house creepers in our dreams of Eden, flee before we mean to throw the worms out with the water rife with hated spawn and set a sword to whirl and slaughter all Vipers at the gates of dawn..." I LOVE THAT SONG!!!
"Tonight the black guards came to rape and ruin those souls empathising with fleeing far away, thrown to the Tigris river curves of our star tiara-ed Ishtar rising they thought they caught us courting Baphomet..."
"And I embrace where lovers rot her ghost in the fog..." *weeeeeeeeeeps*
I could go on for hours...*lol*

"Nothing will keep us apart
We could kill them all
If our desire tore free
Our union is one, sweet, sinful Eve
And the night draws in beside her
As we embrace the dark side by side
I pour my soul to those eyes full of fire
To harvest the seed ploughed inside her
Archangel, snare the flesh
Suck dry the ebbing wound
Leave them lifeless and broken
My beloved...
Oh, how I have craved for you
You so pure and other-worldly with your scent of Winter
Am I to bleed myself dry just to see your delight?"

from Summer Dying Fast:
Through acrid clouds of summer flies
the garden swells with a thousand more wise
Forever flung to celestial dreams
clawing at the grave of the dead nazarene
