Let There Be Dark
Sleep, my child please sleep Avoid the nightmares that seep Into your eyes and into your mind Nothing will save you this time Sleep, my child please sleep Under the chapel you'll creep Dark and alone, nobody's home Follow their footsteps alone Fire Earth Sleep, my child please sleep Avoid the nightmares that seep Into your eyes and into your mind Nothing will save you this time Sleep, my child please sleep Under the chapel you'll creep Dark and alone, nobody's home Follow their footsteps alone Fire Earth I wouldn't ever betray Down to the ground where you'll lay Under the chapel Lost and trampled Under the chapel Burned out your candle I wouldn't ever betray The Giver will take you away Under the chapel Lost and trampled Knocked off your mantle Perfect example Fire! Earth Fire! Earth Fire! Earth Fire! Earth

Strapped into the winding mind Mine takes hold of my divine Patience turns to fear in time Purpose behind the decline None to blame for what you seek Take what's left and yours to keep Whisper what cannot be heard Death is such a foolish word Tears from your eyes Too scared to cry Running out of time Running for my life The hour falls The curtain calls So on your mark Let there be dark A falling arc A crippled heart A work of art Let there be dark, dark!! Live inside of our own world Banners yet to be unfurled Only see what's on display A million words are left to say Seize the day though we may try Days will only pass you by Consciousness in disarray Visions take my breath away Tears from your eyes Too scared to cry Running out of time Running for my life The hour falls The curtain calls So on your mark Let there be dark A fallen arc A crippled heart A work of art Let there be dark, dark!!

Holy water on my face Cleanses me from disgrace Ordinary men would fear 'Cause there are no angels here Look around, did you hear the sound? Thunder cracks and splits the ground Holy water on my skin Cleanse them out, don't let them in Abdication claims the crown Blackened rose, the thorns abound Heavens tear with a poisoned air Fills the sky with a vicious glare Look around, did you hear the sound? Now the tides are flowing upside down The holy water please save me I'm begging on my knees don't forsake me Let your wisdom take my hand Holy mother tell me something that I'll understand See the pages turning As the water makes them burn Passing ships are sailing To the point of no return

Lay beside me and I cry Gentle whispers make me die Love no longer by my side No more reasons left to try And I cry, and I cry And I cry, and I cry Lay beside me and I cry Say I'm sorry but I lie Run away but I can't hide Lonely tears fall and I cry And I cry, and I cry And I cry, and I cry And I cry, and I cry And I'll cry, and I'll cry I'm not being crushed by death I'll carry it around Like a locket around my neck But a hundred pounds Here I am, weighed down, baby But I don't mind Leave my love and leave me be And I'll just cry And I'll cry And I'll cry, and I'll cry And I'll cry, and I'll cry And I'll cry, and I'll cry And I'll cry, and I'll cry

Lord of plagues and prophecies Pages torn from Eden's trees The serpent crawls to me this day Leviathan come out and play Wield the power of sacred names Seraphim unlock the flames The sun will plunge into the sea Insanity will fall upon thee So it is written, so it is sealed Your ruin cast in stone to never be repealed So it is written, so it is sealed Behold the secrets of the hidden and revealed Once a void without a form Now returns a violent storm Gods of stone watch helplessly Ignore your plea, don't call upon thee A heap of ashes Oh, the bloody Nile The fire rains On an endless mile So it is written, so it is sealed Your ruin cast in stone to never be repealed So it is written, so it is sealed Behold the secrets of the hidden and revealed

Walk through a land full of mystery Can't help my eyes I don't know what to see I'm far away and now I fear the night It's real for me so I can learn to fight Turn the page and let the rest unfold Hoping your soul absorbs the holy ghost I've got my weapons and my mastery I'll liquidate in time for you to flee Before the morning sun The call for battle has begun I conquered all you had I'll stay forever iron clad Iron Clad Tales of glory awaken my dreams Blood will flow from the springs and the streams Feel the pressure, your heart's beating faster Now you beg like a slave to a master 'Cause when the sun will rise There's little use for your disguise I conquered all you had I'll stay forever And with my iron hand You'll live and die by my command You'll see my armor shine The victory is mine! Iron Clad Iron Clad Iron Clad

In the division of the night I see a prism without light I push away with all my might Don't need a reason Don't you say We'll fade into the night Don't you say The sun is here to stay while you're running away In the division of the night The warmth is waning with the light I feel a chill, I feel a fright A change of seasons Don't you say We'll fade into the night Don't you say It's all a long goodbye Don't you say The moment's here to stay while you're running away

Strike the tune of an ancient band Stories told in an ancient land Fools are quick to understand When the hammer falls into wicked hands Broken peace is on parade See the wonders he has made Furthest corners of sea they sail Until every knee will bend and hail Hear them pounding and you are the nail Here comes the Hammer, the Hammer, the Hammer Swinging the night away the Hammer, the Hammer, the Hammer Swinging the night away The perfect weapon to employ at your demand The world's an anvil with a hammer in your hand Afraid of danger, they will do no more than pray I hold the hammer and I'll have the final say The stroke of midnight The hammer lands on the head The stroke of midnight It's time to wake the undead Raise your hammer to assail Populations to bewail See the hammer shining bloody red As the nations eulogize their dead Night has fallen, now prepare your bed Here comes the Hammer, the Hammer, the Hammer Swinging the night away the Hammer, the Hammer, the Hammer Swinging the night away Last night I heard a scream I swore it was a dream Their ghosts came back in time Somewhere we crossed the line The stroke of midnight
