Funeral Mist Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yes, live now through this tool of yours
Live through me, O seditious star,
and like a thousand suns shall I spread thy light
Like a thousand plagues
A thousand wars
Bound on earth, bound in heaven
Burn in me, angel
Yes, burn the self to kill the human within
And fetter now these lustful limbs
Fetter the flesh, choke the sin
Laudamus te
Adoramus te
I condemn all in me that is not of thee
And now I am the light that is above all
Holy poison, holy doom
Reborn for injection in the veins of man
A mirror of fear to turn life against life
Now set me free in the plan of God
Original serpent, hear me...see me... Enslave and use me
I breathe only to take the form thou wish
Quoniam tu solus sanctus
Tu solus dominus
And like a child frightened to obedience shall I do thy holy will until eternity ends and thereafter... Amen
Shine through me Satan
Yes, breathe now through this tool of yours
Dwell through me, O seditious star,
and like a thousand suns shall I spread thy light
Like a thousand plagues
A thousand wars
A thousand hells and a thousand storms
Glorificamus te
Oremus
Let us give praise
Extol and worship
Gratias agimus tibi propter magnam gloriam tuam
Holy poison, holy doom
Reborn for infection in the womb of wombs
A spiral of Chaos, God against God
Now set me free in the plan of life
The plan of God, holy doom
A legion of spasms in the limbs of the bearer
God against life against God against all
Holy poison, holy doom...
The lyrics of Funeral Mist's song "Holy Poison" describe the singer's desire to be possessed by Satan and used as a tool to spread his influence. The use of phrases like "shine through me" and "breathe now through this tool of yours" indicate that the singer sees himself as a vessel for Satan's power. The second verse describes the singer surrendering his human nature and binding himself to Satan, referring to himself as "the light that is above all". The chorus repeats the phrase "holy poison, holy doom", which seems to suggest that the singer sees himself as both a liberator and a destroyer - a force that can free humanity by spreading Satan's influence, but also an agent of chaos and destruction.
The third verse describes the singer's desire to overcome his "lustful limbs" and "choke the sin" within him, suggesting that he sees Satan as a means of transcending his own human weaknesses. The fourth verse repeats the idea of being enslaved by Satan and used as a tool for his will. The song ends with a final call to praise Satan and spread his influence, describing the "holy poison" as a force that can lead to both rebirth and destruction.
Overall, the lyrics of "Holy Poison" are provocative and unsettling, exploring themes of power, possession, and temptation. The use of Christian language and imagery adds to the song's subversive message, as it suggests that Satanism is not simply a rejection of Christianity, but a twisted, alternative form of spirituality.
