The Shells Are Open Lyrics
I see her coiling down
The Huluppu tree
To maid Inannas fruitful landShe's one of the Shedims
Living in the cave
Venus of the night
The shells are openClimb the sacred tree on Thantifaxath
And enter Lilith's nest
In the Huluppu tree
Walk the lunar path to Qulielfi
Fly with the screech owl
To the shore of EuphratesLil, the nigh Naamah, my queen
The queen of the night
Is dressed in shadows
The shell is wide open, the child is born
Behold the savior of QliphothA lion, serpent
Owl with wings of Pazuzu
Driven from the tree
Come back as a godThe shell is wide open
Howlers of Edom, you female demons
Let the child be born
Through ThantifaxathWalk the lunar path on Qulielfi
Fly with the screech owl
And enter Malkuth
Open up the shell
And unleash Chiva
