THE HARPOONEER

from „Genesis XIX“

Songtext

Death to the living, Long live the killers
Riding in a lightning storm
Beneath the tides, The beast inside
Heaven's ugly silence overall

Marks of inner crucifixion, deep inside his face
Through conflicts of convictions, gazing towards to the stars

Concealed beneath the sea
Covered by the blackened hell
Command him against all lovings
No wisdom's words to tell

The dreaded creature disappeared
Carried down their infinite souls
I'll follow him around the horn
My superstition be remold
I'll keep on tracking all the time
My sordid end is near
The all-destroying sperm
I am the harpooneer

Unsounded sea, His fate is sealed
Black birds across the sky
His doom awaits, the dreams of hate
Through determined eyes

Is it him or god or who, who lift this mortal arm
Who is the doom when the judge himself
Is dragged before the bar

Concealed beneath the sea, Covered by the blackened hell
Command him against all lovings, No wisdom's words to tell

The dreaded creature disappeared
Carried down their infinite souls
I'll follow him around the horn
My superstition be remold
I'll keep on tracking all the time
My sordid end is near
The all-destroying sperm
I am the harpooneer

God's wrath awaits, No time to pray
He's wide awake inside
God-given courage, Paired with lust
To stand a hopeless fight

The jaws of hell, No tales to tell
Threats of blasphemy
Larger than life, He'd strike the sun
If it insulted him

All truth with malice in it, against the natures law
I'll wreak my hate upon him, from the bottom of my heart

Concealed beneath the sea, Covered by the blackened hell
Command him against all lovings, No wisdom's words to tell

The dreaded creature disappeared
Carried down their infinite souls
I'll follow him around the horn
My superstition be remold
I'll keep on tracking all the time
My sordid end is near
The all-destroying sperm
I am the harpooneer
