Lyrics to Impera [Full Album 2022] by Ghost

Tracklist: 01. Imperium [Instrumental] 02. Kaisarion [Verse 1] Kaisarion, a prophecy told We're building our empire from the ashes of an old Kaisarion, the fruit of the womb Our brotherhood of good faith sealed an apostate witch's doom [Pre-Chorus] It's the sound of another deadline whistling past your ears It's the sight of a million regrets mounting over years It's the words that were never spoken that echoes through the times It's the smell of the burning temples swept away by rhymes [Chorus] (Hypatia) Far away from the stench of the heavens (Hypatia) Long ago, yet too close to forever (Hypatia) When a paradise is lost, go straight to... [Verse 2] Kaisarion, a matter of love When Mother Earth is calling for a father up above Kaisarion, put on the smiles And throw your holy rocks right at her for her satanic wiles [Pre-Chorus] It's the truth of candor shone through the prism of deceit It's the continence of bishops with their choirboys en-suite It's the tongue selling adulation that licks to no avail It's the noise of the righteous dogma that hides the handmaid's tail [Chorus] (Hypatia) Far away from the stench of the heavens (Hypatia) Long ago, yet too close to forever (Hypatia) When a paradise is lost, go straight to... [Bridge] It's the sound of another deadline whistling past your ears It's the sight of a million regrets mounting over years It's the words that were never spoken that echoes through the times It's the smell of the burning temples swept away by rhymes It's the truth of candor shone through the prism of deceit It's the continence of bishops with their choirboys en-suite It's the tongue selling adulation that licks to no avail It's the noise of the righteous dogma that hides the handmaid's tail [Chorus] (Hypatia) Far away from the stench of the heavens (Hypatia) Long ago, yet too close to forever (Hypatia) When a paradise is lost, go straight to... (Hypatia) Far away from the stench of the heavens (Hypatia) Long ago, yet too close to forever (Hypatia) When a paradise is lost, go straight to... 03. Spillways [Verse 1] Through benediction You tried to rid your mind Of malediction But through all this time You try to peel it off And it is such a ride Your desolation Led you into this Vile incarnation Of consummated bliss I know you need it now To make you feel alive [Chorus] All your faith All your rage All your pain It ain't over now And I ain't talking about forgiveness All your faith All your rage All your pain It ain't over now It is the cruel beast that you feed It is your burning, yearning need to bleed Through the Spillways... [Verse 2] You keep a casket Buried deep within You try to mask it But fall back in sin You want to shake it off But you are stuck inside When stripped of rags Of skin and spine Human decay Corpus Dei Terminally dispelled And it is such a ride [Chorus] All your faith All your rage All your pain It ain't over now And I ain't talking about forgiveness All your faith All your rage All your pain It ain't ovеr now It is the cruel beast that you feed It is your burning, yеarning need to bleed Through the Spillways Through the Spillways of your soul Through the Spillways... [Guitar solo] It is the cruel beast that you feed It is your burning, yearning need to bleed Through the Spillways Through the Spillways of your soul Through the Spillways Through the Spillways of your soul Through the Spillways Through the Spillways of your soul Through the Spillways Through the Spillways of your soul 04.

Hunter’s Moon [Verse 1] It's been a long time coming I'm coming back for you, my friend To where we'd hide as children I'm coming back for you, my friend [Chorus] Though my memories have faded They come back to haunt me once again And though my mind is somewhat jaded Now, it's time for me to strike again Tonight, it's a Hunter's Moon [Verse 2] Under a headstone, sister I'm dying to see you, my friend (Ah) Back in the old cemetery I'm dying to see you, my friend [Chorus] Though my memories have faded They come back to haunt me once again And though my mind is somewhat jaded Now, it's time for me to strike again Tonight, it's a Hunter's Moon [Bridge] Ooh, I'm coming, I'm dying To see you one last time, together [Chorus] Though my memories have faded They come back to haunt me once again And though my mind is somewhat jaded Now, it's time for me to strike again I'm coming back for you, my friend Tonight, it's a Hunter's Moon [Outro] (Hunt, hunt, Hunter's Moon) (Hunt, hunt, hunter) (Hunt, hunt, hunt) 06.

Is spun like a yarn and mangled With flesh and blood and bones I wonder Did no one hear the distant thunder? [Verse 2] The autumnal reaper The stains of this creeper ...Will last The shine and the sham entangled Like salting earth with tears of Jesus He sliced and diced our dreams to pieces [Pre-Chorus] For the dreams that you dread Can becomе just as real As the blood that was shed With thе slash of his steel Now the street walking dead Was quite a scene, wasn't it? For the lost and mislead Were promised seats by the pit [Chorus] We will break away together I will be the shadow You will be the light Nothing ever lasts forever We will go softly into the night [Instrumental break] [Bridge] We are leaving this city So this is farewell Goodbye Seven Sisters And Saint Jezebel The moon in the gutter Has a story to tell One day he will come back From the bowels of hell [Pre-Chorus] He appeared to ascend So we all stood there in awe Now we have to pretend We did not see what we saw When the curtain unveiled To the sound of applause For the king that we hailed Was the Wizard of Oz [Chorus] We will break away together I will be the shadow You will be the light Nothing ever lasts forever We will go softly into the night Nothing ever lasts forever We will go softly into the night [Instrumental]
