Current 93 - I Dreamt I Was Aeon lyrics

When I came over the water I saw her face glory on the sea And I have come to draw you to me BaalStorm—put yourself in my place The surface seas in the mirror, the gra**, the gorge Mark Mark Mark this— "is everything all right?" The breeze filled with teeth The choir boys hymned "Hark the lark" But the splinter—you are real Smokes of stirring robbed my eyes I came over the water To shape you and fill you— "I am Æon" These are more than hosannas for the gallants In their galleons on their stallions I came to state the teeth of the truth— "I am Æon" Her vulture runs to refuge But refuses the tongue Tight that night's grip on the light over Naqqada Stung memory and slayed cells "Women twice slaves: in bird and in bed" ⲗⲁ ⲓⲗⲁϩⲁ ⲓⲗⲗⲁⲗⲗⲁϩ "The haunted face of the middle of the road follows me home Pencils and bombs Cells and fall Idols—fall!"
