Evensong - The Conquering Worm lyrics

Terrible spires & monoliths under unvanquished skies A vast ivory-black tower in Night's hellish-black mire A brooding dark power a spreading black world Some said: It's Babylon the abominable realm of Man Standing tall like a steadfast giant eclipsing the stars, usurping heavens a phantom world in the sickening light a vast monument of perverseness Now We worship Satan, the Bringer Of Light Oh you, Selfish Father, you left us on that horrid night We forgot Eden, the Garden of Joy our eternal life like a dream dissolved O, God of Almighty Heavens who will save us from perdition? Shall our immortal vigour return or shall we drown with the Stygian flood?
