Lyrics

(I mourn that the night passes us by)
(Lyrics by anders jacobsson, august 1998, edited july 1999)

Lucifer:
Oh angel o' my winter;
Grieveth for the pain o' sadness
A gothic embrace restores my love
God took away..
Ye romance o' forgotten times..
In eras without the sun
An ocean o' tears I see..
A nightfall o' dreams caresses me

Deliah:
Thou wert, thou art, thou shalt fore'er be..
Ye nightshade o' thy sorrow
Stretching out for it's romantic rose in twilights beauty
In love with ye thousands o' nights..
But weeping in silence... in ebony... for melancholy… forever!

Jesus christ walks the earth…
A pitiful shade of god…
A cruel conspiracy for the sake of slavery
And he drags 'em down to the plague of humanity

Lucifer:
I've killed my holiness…
Killed my emptiness!
I'm fallen from god…
Fallen from guilt!

I've abandoned the light
The light that blinded so long!
Free from submission
But still under his spell
We're in pain… pain… pain!
Sorrow turns to anguish…
And I scream with hate at the tyrant above!

Deliah:
Hosanna de profundis!
Dethrone the tyrant…
Take his throne, take the throne!

Astaroth:
Gothic moon… ablazeth the eventide so sonorous
Ye solemn of a lovelorn gard'n o' crimson souls
All true beauty is sad..
But lost within the clenched hands of god

Lucifer:
I mourn that the night passes us by…
Let there be an eternal night… eternal night!
I mourn that the night passes us by!
Let there be an eternal night… eternal night!

..I shall call upon the dragon...!
