MARDUK – Shovel Beats Sceptre (OFFICIAL VIDEO) Letra Century Media Records MARDUK – Shovel Beats Sceptre Lyrics
Has it dawned on you yet?
Have you begun to grasp
That life is not a clock
But an hourglass?
Are you prepared?
Is your rat-nest in order?
Will your mind be at ease
When the shadows grow taller?
Hopeless odds
The game is fixed
See death tear down the playground
A knife in the throat
Just to see if it fits
See life sneak out through the Devil´s hatch
Blazing scythe – book of lies
Scissors beats paper
Orb of flies – throne of mice
Shovel beats sceptre
Hopeless buds
The soil is sick
See reason reach for the tinderbox
A modest flame
And a bundle of sticks
All flesh is grass when the ashes call
Mouths of dirt – angel birth
Tombstone beats feather
Wall of urns – crown of worms
Shovel beats sceptre
Has it dawned on you yet?
Have you begun to grasp
That life is not a clock
But an hourglass?
Are you prepared?
Is your rat-nest in order?
Will your mind be at ease
when the shadows grow taller?
Your days are numbered
No matter what you´ve been told
So, stop now and consider
That you´ve never been this old…
Pope-less odds
The throat is slit
See leafed hands raise the loving cup
A pale vowel
From the deaconess’ lips
All flesh is cash when the gavel falls
Oblong box – gilded cross
Coffin beats saviour
Velvet knots – maggot pox
Shovel beats sceptre
