lyrics

the judas cross

in the Christian light of your eyes
i see evil
licking boots
of the gentleman thieves
you follow

you asked
but then you wouldn’t stay
for an answer
allowing yourselves
to be fooled
by the drunken dancer

it you had brains you’d be dangerous
make the sign of the cross
turn it upside down

fires in your footsteps
as you walk from your bridges
negative air
surrounds you
a descent to your level
like that with the devil
a mirror that no one
can see through
- or see you

in enlightened darkness you dwell
you see nothing
spitting yourself in the face
as you’re bluffing

ten wise mens in flames
abbots of unreason
into the land of Cockaigne
pledge your allegiance

it you had brains you’d be dangerous
make the sign of the cross
turn it upside down

fires in your footsteps
as you walk from your bridges
negative air
surrounds you
a descent to your level
like that with the devil
a mirror that no one
can see through

look out!
for the answer
look out!
for the drunken dancer

fires in your footsteps
as you walk from your bridges
negative air
surrounds you
a descent to your level
like that with the devil
a mirror that no one
can see through
I see you

Magick Touch Bergen, Norway

Lo, it's been three long years, MAGICK TOUCH return with a surprising twist: a mostly moody and slightly occult-tinged album bearing the curious title Cakes & Coffins. Definitely darker but by no means sacrificing those characteristically majestic MAGICK TOUCH hooks, the trio twist the knife in a different direction that thankfully still sounds 666% like them. ... more
