Lucifer:
And the fires burn'd inside my eye's
as ye fall's ascending like a moment o' joy Spirit of Night:
My thorns where sown in ye light o' Day, His thorns were spawned from the grasp o' God,
and the winds"¦ they blew"¦ and the pain"¦ it grew"¦
until my winds, they blew no more but holiness grew no more
I scream'd out into the dawn!
Grievance; fro' the horizon she comes"¦
I wonder if I could stay in His world, Grievance:
"?cause sooner or later this pain must end! Pain must end!
My life"¦ it cries to be free, His life cries, but soon to be free"¦
but legions of stars"¦ the stars suffers with me! Thou art the star o' Venus"¦ Oh Seraphim!
The Holy Spirit:
Thou must obey thy father, thy God!
Bow down before his eyes"¦ before his very eye's"¦!
Lucifer:
My God"¦ "?father'"¦ hear us cry!
Tell me why"¦! Thou wilt die!!!
Astaroth:
Oh, Enslaver Of Souls;
Thou can not be our father!
Oh, Avengeful God;
Thou hast brought us agony!
Lucifer:
Into heav'n our sorrow"¦ Sorrow
ye beautiful moment o' tragedy"¦ so beautiful"¦
Falling fro' the lies of His "?perfect world' They are falling"¦
Takest us away, so far away"¦ falling!
here is nothing but pain God is smiling"¦
Farewell now as we enter our darkness"¦ smiling!
and we love her, the realization! Salvation comes but pain
Behold our salvation!
