Goat of Mendes - Queen of Borrowed Light Lyrics

Mistress of the Netherworld, so intricate and fine
Head of the Secret Church between the Róm and the Divine
Lady Moonlight
Tide of the Sea
Fertile Earth
Duality
You venture forth in spirit realms but do not strive for mastery
You just reflect the Sun God's light, full wisdom breeds insanity

Earthbound throned
Upon an altar garbed in flowers
Bride of Ra
You're known as Black Sara

Spirit Guide
Protect our people, guard our secrets
Source of Being
Our Mother, Great Kali

Guard the child
Of the Shaman's seed
Defy the papal creed
Queen of borrowed light

A cavern suits as earthen palace deep beneath hypocrite splendour
As Consort of the Dying God you'll be true wisdoms sole defender
Forever keep your veil of secrets closed from prying pious eyes
And grant us intuition to foresee where ancient knowledge lies

Papesse la Kali, Nigra sum sed Formosa
Our beacon through the Dark along this Via Dolorosa
Remind us on the Sun God's smile as we walk through this endless night
Spiritual bride of Man, Queen of borrowed Light

A fragile shard of wisdom, swept onshore with the tide
A Queen in servant's garments to act as faithful guide
In the gloom
A light we need
The sun must shine
Where shadows breed
A Shadowthrone between the pillars of infinite duality
To gaze beyond the Mother's veil means to reach Eternity
