In menstrual night
When red is black
And Christus crawls
From Mary's crack
Wrapped in tatters
And flailing in mud
Child defiled
With tears and blood
Pigface Christus is born
Pigface Christus is born
In menstrual night
When red is black
And darkness crawls
Out of the crack
Some were born
In fields of mourning
Some were ripped
In fields of rape
Some bowed down
In echoed splendour
All were torn In fields of tears
Crushed by church
And raped by father
Bled by mother
Torn and tearing
In scarlet playgrounds
On iron railways
Christ's pale body
Crucified
Time was
Time is
Time shall be no more
Some with tears
And some with laughter
Some in sadness
All in vain
In fields fresh crippled
The glint of sickles
The scars of sunset
The sund of reaping
You and I
On threshing floors
Lost and losing
Parched and preying
All have numbers
None have names
Here open the gates of heaven
Here open the gates of hell
Time was
Time is
Time shall be no more
Current 93 è un gruppo musicale sperimentale britannico eclettico attivo dal primo decennio degli anni '80. Fondato nel 1982 da David Tibet (nato David Michael Bunting, ribattezzato 'Tibet' da Genesis P-Orridge prima della formazione del gruppo), il progetto si caratterizza per un approccio folk a volte oscuro e visionario, mescolando elementi di musica tradizionale, psichedelia, drone e poesia. Current 93 ha collaborato con numerosi artisti, tra cui Coil, Nurse With Wound e The Legendary Pink Dots, contribuendo a definire l'estetica del dark ambient e dell'experimental music. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano 'Earth Accomplice', 'The Stars Are Not For Us' e 'Aleister Crowley'.
