Storm Of Damnation Lyrics

(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:!
