We're standing here by the abyss
And the world is in flames
Two star-crossed lovers reaching out
To the beast with many names
[Chorus: Papa Emeritus III]
He is
He's the shining and the light
Without whom I cannot see
And He is
Insurrection, he is spite
He's the force that made me be
He is
Nostro Dispater
Nostr'Alma Mater
He is
[Verse 2: Papa Emeritus III]
We are hiding here inside a dream
And all our doubts are now destroyed
The guidance of the morning star
Will lead the way into the void
[Chorus: Papa Emeritus III]
He is
He's the shining and the light
Without whom I cannot see
And He is
Insurrection, he is spite
He's the force that made me be
He is
Nostro Dispater
Nostr'Alma Mater
He is
[Guitar Solo: Nameless Ghoul (Fire & Aether)]
[Chorus: Papa Emeritus III]
He is
He's the shining and the light
Without whom I cannot see
And He is
Insurrection, he is spite
He's the force that made me be
He is
He's the shining and the light
Without whom I cannot see
And He is
The disobedience
That holds us together
He is
Nostro Dispater
Nostr'Alma Mater
And we are falling
Over the precipice

A Nameless Ghoul told Loudwire that there are various degrees of personal meaning within the song, one of which is the lyrics. He explained that the original demo lyrics were "bogus" and did not have any "bite", but following the 2014 suicide of Selim Lemouchi, guitarist of The Devil's Blood who was friends with members of Ghost, the lyrics materialized.
