1
On bended knees we pray for war, a blade draws blood but often tarnishes
2
Through blazing eyes I see new sunsets, sky now breaking different shades of red
3
We pray for blades, ablazing locusts call for wars to wet the earth
4
To cover the world in black and bracken, flaming stubble with church bell battles
5
And then I lie in the arms of a smiling girl who prays to Christ and the pale queens mighty in sorrow
6
Mighty in sorrow
7
Mighty in sorrow

9
Mighty in sorrow
10
When did I stand before I touched the shadows of this life that touch the dark and dream of ice
11
An endless winter in this dogday-age, I kiss the cross but dream of wars
12
A bagatelle for a massacre or wars of fire were build to last
13
Old men die and stone will turn to stone
14
And then I kiss the mouth of a smiling girl who calls on Christ and the pale queens mighty in sorrow

Mighty in sorrow

19
Immaculate heart of immaculate love a tawdry scarecrow for a tarnished crown
20
His five wounds bleed but only on his throne, his toothless smile cuts wide across his face
21
And then I kiss the mouth of a smiling girl who calls on Christ and the pale queens mighty in sorrow
22
Mighty in sorrow
23
Mighty in sorrow
24
Mighty in sorrow
25
Mighty in sorrow
26
And what shall I receive a little drum to beat when I march with scorched earth's steps
27
A rocking horse for a little warrior to trample around and down from fields of rape
28
An alabaster doll for the little maid while she waxes and wanes through the blood of the moon
29
And camouflaged smocks for the purest of pure, a masculine mark, and the flag of their shame
30
And I kiss the lips of the smiling girl who calls on Christ and the pale queens mighty in sorrow
31
Mighty in sorrow
32
Mighty in sorrow
33
Mighty in sorrow
34
Mighty in sorrow
35
And where shall I go back there and back, furthest and far, to the edge of the shore
36
The snow falls thick his mantle of strength descends with a winter on those in his service
37
The snow is the winner
38
Message of winter, your hope shall be crushed
39
The lightflame grows dimmer
40
Child's laughter ceases on a front with no ending
41
Within words with no meaning
42
Child's laughter sickens
43
Child's fever rages
44
Smouldering pages
45
Inquisition!
46
And I die in the arms of a smiling girl who prays to Christ and the pale queens mighty in sorrow
47
Mighty in sorrow
