My Father
Lord of silence, supreme God of desolation
Who mankind reviles, yet aches to embrace
Strengthen my purpose to save the world from a second ordeal of Jesus Christ
And his grubby, mundane creed
Two thousand years have been enough
Show man instead the raptures of thy kingdom
Infuse in him the grandeur of melancholy
The divinity of loneliness
The purity of evil
The paradise... of pain
Cast out from Heaven
The fallen angel
We were both created in man's image
But while you were born of an impotent god
I was conceived of a jackal
Born of Satan, the desolate one
The desolate one
Fallen angel, cast out from Heaven
A second ordeal of Jesus Christ
