Under The Oak Lyrics - Lucifer Rising - Candlemass

Deep was my anguish for these words 

They froze my blood and chained my soul 

The master had spoken, the truth, not any lies 

The devil gives and evil takes, the things in life that man forsakes 

A throne in hell, a price or a sacrifice? 

Still the wind was blowing soft and gentle here under the oak 

Which gave me shelter and rested for my trial 

I'm not strong, weak is my mind, a new beginning, where to find? 

I'm the last one on earth, please forgive us our crime, oh, oh 

It was a time, when love was mine, oh, oh 

Now it's time, to sacrifice 

My heart, bleeding for my race 

The traces of mankind swept out by the hands of our Lord 

I cried for the ones I had lost 

Midnight in paradise, grief, away goes my hope 

I cried for the ones I had lost
