"Wormwood" lyrics

"Wormwood"

In taberna quando sumus
Non curamus quid sit humus
Hoc est opus ut quæratur
Et impositor lotium

In taberna quando sumus
Non curamus quid sit humus
Hoc est opus ut quæratur
Et impositor lotium

Benigna autem noctum
Tormenta quod si eris
Benigna autem noctum
Octa remus remigium

Benigna autem noctum
Tormenta quod si eris
Benigna autem noctum
Octa remus remigium

I can see God's unborn son
Playing with a loaded gun
All our sins...
He'll die for us...
Or did somebody lie to us?

I can see the shape of God
Drowning in a pool of blood
A mighty choir of ancient generations sings
Behold! The hand of death
Squeezing out earth's final breath
The stars are falling from the sky
And I know why

See God and his hand of death
Squeezing out earth's final breath
How did it all come to this?
Brought to us by Judas kiss?
I watch the sun go out
I've lived to see the end

Silva, sine mora
Prosperitatis
Silve per amena
Semper angaria

Silva, sine mora
Prosperitatis
Silve per amena
Semper angaria

As I watch the sun go out
My loss of faith replaced by doubt
All our sins...
He'll die for us...
Or did somebody lie to us?

Let us pour one final drink
Fill the glasses to the rim
The world's on fire
I still can hear the choir sing
Behold! Your nightmares are fulfilled
God just got his final will
The world stops spinning
And death is all around...

Benigna autem noctum
Tormenta quod si eris
Benigna autem noctum
Octa remus remigium

Benigna autem noctum
Tormenta quod si eris
Benigna autem noctum
Octa remus remigium

Come...
Join this toast
God is dead...

Benigna autem noctum
Tormenta quod si eris
Benigna autem noctum
Octa remus remigium

Benigna autem noctum
Tormenta quod si eris
Benigna autem noctum
Octa remus remigium

Benigna autem noctum
Tormenta quod si eris
Benigna autem noctum
Octa remus remigium

Benigna autem noctum
Tormenta quod si eris!
