Lyrics:
Now the light is gone and the night prevails
O’er land of sorrows and of tears
The Harlot and the Beast arise
Their mark they burn on your brow
All love is lost, terror now reigns
Justice bound on a pyre
Obsolete and soon to be erased
Cast to a pit void of light
A cry from the wilderness
The voice of unearthly power
Like the beams of light your lives converge
In a vision of your dying hour
Trembling pale in silence hides
To dare the deadly horrors grasp
The Pity in a furnace chained
Bound by the Law’s dreadful clasp
Sightless climb a mountain side
To escape a darksome grave
To break the madness and to see
To cleans the mind’s unending hate
A cry from the wilderness
The voice of unearthly power
Like the beams of light your lives converge
In a vision of your dying hour
In the deep distant skies burns
The truth of your eyes
Spread your wings, dare aspire
Reach your hand, seize the fire
There is the snake and the dove
Beware of love and love
Where the fallen angels mourn
In the golden light of dawn
[Solo: Mikko]
Forever a moment of time
Yet Death eternal follows you
A cruel slight of hand divine
Thus spake the demons of the deep
Betray the truth and spare your life
Forsake the perfect harmony
Serpent coils around your spine
The wheel of time, now complete
A cry from the wilderness
The voice of unearthly power
Like the beams of light your lives converge
In a vision of your dying hour
In the deep distant skies burns
The truth of your eyes
Spread your wings, dare aspire
Reach your hand, seize the fire
There is the snake and the dove
Beware of love and love
Where the fallen angels mourn
In the golden light of dawn
