Silence calms the violent storm but only for the dead
Cannot restrain the brooding ghosts from seething in my head
The calloused heart receives the woes yet grieves for souls no more
Foreseeing the fleeting faith of men dried up on the shore
Behold a glimmer of the light that flees swiftly amidst
this furnace of affliction precursing the abyss
Of conquered wreathes and casted stones that build the walls of hate
Dichotomize the conscience man that dreads a sealed fate
The ravens quench the fire and whisper dark desires
They feed on the incision provoking their illusions
The hand in the quiver the serpent he slithers
on into the garden tainted by compromise
Of crimson and shadows betrayal and scarlet
Of wormwood's destruction - the curse that breeds corruption
I sacrificed my soul on the altar of despair
A tale of tainted love and grieving of The Dove
The arrows pierced through me yet grace has pursued me
While cowering in shadows a presence descends into the darkness
The tomb on which I laid my head becomes a pillar to Heaven's gate
Unleashing wrath upon the scorn that withered my tortured soul
The ghostly howls of Hades shall be my dread no more
Sola Gratia, Sola Fide, Solus Christus, Soli Deo Gloria

Lilith cloaked in the mantle of Milcom
their spirits give birth to the dead
Departed from peace and the path of the righteous
are the servants who offer their heads
Deceived and deceiving the path on the left
while promising every desire
Declaring their choice while spreading their legs
and offer their children to fire
Candlemass witches cast spells in the night
in oaths to the gods of their choice
Promising freedom while staining their souls
in the blood of those without a voice
Deprived of all rights - wrenched from the womb
extracted from solace within
Their blood crying out to the one cloaked in darkness
the dreadful avenger of sin
Songs of Ammon chants of sin torrents pour out from within
Odes to self to feed the flames embracing wormwood in disdain
of the one who can break their chains
Bowed at the altars of Molech
your glory is your demise
Bewitched by the spirits who plot your destruction
you lusted at their disguise
Fed on the venom of serpents - felt warmth at deception's kiss
Whored out to your lovers on a bed full of nails
now betrothed to the abyss
We will not be silent
while innocence is despised
at Jezebel's feast with blood on their hands
so proudly proclaiming their rights
Cursing the altars of Molech
and their rituals of death
Satanic devotion at their shrines of worship
soon reaping the wrath of the Lamb
Cursing the altars of Molech
and the whore that seduced their souls
at Jezebel's call they yielded their senses
deceived by the serpent of old
Cursing the altars of Molech
and praising the wrath of the lamb
The fires are stoked and the penalty just
snuffed out by The Maker's hand

Thus fulfills the sky-bound wish
of which the prophets told
Bereft of the fallen creature
confounding saints of old
Bled forth in its shadowed state
and scapegoats cloaked in veil
For whom the seekers toil unleashed
where no flesh shall prevail
Carcasses where vultures gather
The season and its signs
Serpents dwell in fruitless vineyards
Venom consumed as wine
Like devils perched on angels wings
breaching Heaven's gates
The soulish feed on forked-tongue lies
and reap a devil's fate
Ancient wisdom - Euphemisms
Mystic shadows - Crypticism
Fools perish for their folly
to vomit dogs return
Deceivers stroke the cheeks of harlots
for whom their senses yearn
Discernment cast like pearls to swine
and bears the weight of scorn
While swine are slaughtered on the altar
in vain is sackcloth torn
Scorning wisdom for syncretism
Compelling the wise to forge division
Woe to those who call evil good
Woe to those who call good evil

Alas behold, the one who was foretold
Shadows eclipsed as prophecies unfold
In Crimson agony, Gethsemane’s bane
In sufferance, temptation’s rendered vain
Justice wields its lethal blade as silence adorns its prey
Violence grips the forlorn one and paints the sky with grey
The Scapegoat drinks the fury down as scarlet turns to snow
The crucible of crucifixion, the heavy hand of woe
Sovereignty has bent the bow, The Serpent strikes the heel
Wrath is thrust upon The Lamb, the rending of the veil
Heaven’s true Melchizedek, with his blood prevails
Death cannot contain this one of whom the triune splendor dwells
To majesty on high ascends the conqueror of death and Hell
Qui ascendit ad caelum et pro eo ad Patris
Coming in the clouds destruction will transpire
King and conqueror sublime
Majestic in his fury, there will be blood and fire
Pouring forth His wrath upon mankind
Flee from the wrath to come while mercy still remains
Salvation found only in one
Flee from the wrath to come while mercy still remains
For nigh draws the vengeance of The Son
... And darkness shall cover the Earth...

In Memoriam
by Crowned in Sorrow
supported by 12 fans who also own “Blood And Fire”
Out of the wreckage brought upon by dual personal tragedies comes an outstanding album that is sorrowful and victorious. Once you listen to this a few times, it’s hard to want to listen to anything else for a while. This is my front runner for metal album of 2021, and perhaps even my overall AOTY.
