Shat Out Of Hell Lyrics - Cradle Of Filth

Eclipsing violent centuries 

Like a dark scar over France 

Enter the nascent Gilles De Rais 

A warrior and a scholar 

He fought for Joan Of Arc 

Before she met with martyrdom in flames 

Far from fairytale 

A deaths head on his sail 

A light that would not fail 

Beneath her spell 

But the crucifix was veiled 

When his decadence prevailed 

In a drench of red regaled 

He was shat out of Hell 

Shat out of Hell

Frozen in iniquity 

A passion for awe in an age of grief 

His wealth and power led him on 

To the tainted gates of Babylon 

Born beneath the howling stars 

In a shower of golden Lys 

A wolf-cub with the world between his Sabre teeth 

Torn between extremes of faith 

The pious and the priests 

He fed the Devil children like he threw his mastiffs meat 

Far from fairytale 

The coffin and the nail 

Descending to the pale 

Under the spell 

Of alchemists who failed 

To clench the menstrual grail 

In a drench of red regaled 

He was shat out of Hell 

Photos 

Shat out of Hell 

Grown so morbid without war 

The wine corrupted, nightmares spored 

His Lord's betrayal, played no more 

He beat upon the Devil's door 

Demanding pleasures to replace 

Joan Of Arc, her epic grace 

Had set aflame his wolf heart with her truth 

And when she died, his life of pride 

Was lost to God and in his crimes 

He turned to raising Satan with the proof 

Soon nightly, unsightly 

Offerings were made on a vulgar altar 

And slowly, but surely 

The darkness answered like a falling star 

Far from fairytale 

Insanity exhaled 

A full-blown winter gale 

Under it's spell 

Innocents assailed 

Were entered and impaled 

In a drench of red regaled 

He was shat out of Hell 

Shat out of Hell 

Perverse, seductive, cruel as sin 

An egotist, he mourned 

Both war and glory, schooled to win 

Whatever bored imagination spawned
