lyrics

hh she reigns tonight in silence
keeping her secrets, falling to pieces
oh it rains
upon the Lake of Aching
water breaking
filling up her bowl

inside me there's a desert
my heart's become a stone
how hard i cling to my hurt
all my gardens overgrown
my brain is bent on vengeance
my blade so true and sharp
my hand is raised and ready
to pierce your human heart

i have spent the centuries
re-membering, re-membering
i have spent the centuries re-membering
my own my own my own history
this fortress i have built
it is my home
me, by myself alone
i'm waiting til i'm wan
i'm so alone

this is not wisdom
my logic is de-struction
de-struction
is your step by step by step instruction
it's doesn't matter baby
if you're a non-believer
the axe has fallen
see these eyes have cried
a thousand bitter tears
these arms have held every dying child
i gave you the best two thousand years
of my life
i looked into your bloodless eyes
and I named you Liar
fuck the excuses and fuck the guilt
bury the sword right up to the hilt
cuz the truth is a bitch
and I am she
you call me by my rightful name
cuz i can't be contained
i can't be contained

paint the blood upon my face
i gave birth to the entire human race
the time is now
the time is here
i'm raging screaming rage
out into the biosphere
oh, you were all born in blood
you were all born of She
Her pain, Her love, Her desire
only the truth will set you free
I give to you
The Bitch Goddess of Truth
