Moon Over Sabaoth Lyrics
Oh Fathers and kinsmen
Yield in glorious bow
For its springtime on Saturn
See the Archons gather
Around the celestial crown
For the god of Saturn
Towards the liquid light
Like a swarm of lice
We stand tall
For no more shall our souls
Rattle the chains of Saklas
And the moon over Sabaoth
Where you are laid to rest
A skeleton that was blessed
We found only Death
Oh gracious Mother
You're trapped here with us
In the darkness of Saturn
Hear the Archons whisper
In the shadows of fear
For the god of Saturn
Down comes the serpent rain
Of a god insane
We stand tall
For no more shall our souls
Rattle the chains of Saklas
And the moon over Sabaoth
Where you are laid to rest
A skeleton that was blessed
We found only Death
Let the fires plummet
At the soundless dawn
I am here to defend you
From the cold
The Saturnian glow
From the cold
The Saturnian glow
From the cold
The Saturnian glow
From the cold
The Saturnian glow
Oh brothers, sisters
Be brave and rise above
The moon over Sabaoth
We stand tall
For no more shall our souls
Rattle the chains of Saklas
And the moon over Sabaoth
Where you are laid to rest
A skeleton that was blessed
We found only Death
Yield in glorious bow
For its springtime on Saturn
See the Archons gather
Around the celestial crown
For the god of Saturn
Like a swarm of lice
For no more shall our souls
Rattle the chains of Saklas
And the moon over Sabaoth
Where you are laid to rest
A skeleton that was blessed
We found only Death
You're trapped here with us
In the darkness of Saturn
Hear the Archons whisper
In the shadows of fear
For the god of Saturn
Of a god insane
For no more shall our souls
Rattle the chains of Saklas
And the moon over Sabaoth
Where you are laid to rest
A skeleton that was blessed
We found only Death
At the soundless dawn
I am here to defend you
From the cold
The Saturnian glow
From the cold
The Saturnian glow
From the cold
The Saturnian glow
From the cold
The Saturnian glow
Be brave and rise above
The moon over Sabaoth
For no more shall our souls
Rattle the chains of Saklas
And the moon over Sabaoth
Where you are laid to rest
A skeleton that was blessed
We found only Death

This is a perspective song that crawls in towards its end destination while embracing the Gnostic philosophy more directly. This track, much like the album its on in general is an act of contemplation; About living and dying and remembering who we are in a strange, abrasive world far from home.
