Album: The Closed Eyes Of Paradise

(From the Chalice of Grievance)
(Lyrics by Anders Jacobsson, May 1997, edited July 1999)
Shadows now fall over this tearstain'd strife
Grievance:
My angel dark; I grieve these frozen years!
To thy knees thou fallest, trembling in thy fear"¦

A mournful gloom o'er these bleeding wounds

Spirit of Night:
Angels sing for us
They cometh fro' below!

Lucifer:
I shall rise from His land of pain
Darkness I am and the autumn-rain!
senses and hope leads astray
time will slowly fadeth away!

Astaroth:
Starfire burns, our black misanthropy"¦
but the battle is lost, and His wrath upon us

Grievance:
They are so alone so sadly beautiful
My love will shine and give them hope!

Spirit of Night:
Fires burn for us
they cometh fro' below!

Lucifer:
Lord of Heav'n and thy masterplan,
How could thou force us to worship man?
Here at last we shall be free"¦
In this darkness lies the key

In darkness lies my key"¦!
