lyrics

One last backwards gaze
A decision I have made
To leave behind this life
The stress, the hate, the pain

This pathetic human shell
Has yielded no rewards
Why deal with
The Minutia of Human Life

I can stand this life no longer
The Responsibilities
What I will become
Is as simple as can be

Transmogrify
Into the caprine form

Goat!

I prepare the spell
I gathered all the herbs and fruits
To finally brew the tonic that will aid me

Mugwort, Pomegranate
Rosemary, Sage and Cedar
Will transform me on this Samhain Night

This human life will end
A new one will begin
I can graze the glen and never have to worry

A goat I shall be
Eating herbs and grass
Never fighting, just head-butt around for fun

The horns now pierce my skull
I can feel fur on my skin
My fingers calcify
ecstasy, transmogrify

As I watch the sun rise
from the hill atop the town
I can´t shake the feeling
That who I am remains inside

The pain I always keep in me
damage never to be undone

What have I done?!
What Have I done?!
What Have I done?!
What have I done?!

Yet, the work got done. Caprae Idolum is black metal fueled by the malevolent spirits of the season. Collaborators came, as the voice promised.

Spontaneous musical rituals, exhaustive writing sessions. Music materialised from the void. Black fucking metal.
