Dawn has cussed the black sky Dread is slowly creeping in That bitch has sent her rays to prize Our crusty eyelids open
Wicked, lazy, saturnine Stargazing, drunken parasites We've faced a vaulting wall of thorns I've seen you pruning fondly
Set yourself alight, surrender to the night We built ourselves a pyre while we waited for a sign Set yourself alight, illuminate the night No longer paralyzed by the impulse to survive
Here they come, torches raised Asking how we spent our days But it takes time to cultivate A squalor quite like ours
We'll be baptized in paraffin Fumes will hide the stink of sin Pink like pork and saccharine The gods will feast tonight!
Set yourself alight, surrender to the night We built ourselves a pyre while we waited for a sign Set yourself alight, illuminate the night The body's sacrifice sees the spirit catalyzed
Set yourself alight, illuminate the night No longer paralyzed by the impulse to survive Set yourself alight, the immolation rite Like a moth drawn to the fire, all desire's realized
