Dark Is The Seraphim Lyrics - Singles - Elvira Madigan

Falling by numbers before my very eyes 

The Kin of the Dragons I've slain by birthright 

And seer grant me courage for I know not the peril 

That lie ahead down my twisted path 

... So rise, oh Lord... 

... Grant me strength, to uphold... 

Thy kingdom to come 

Thy death be undone 

Sleep no longer 

For the land below both King and foe 

Awaits this final day 

And though fear roams I do know, I do understand 

What must be done... 

Be seated, be afraid for what may come this way 

For behind these shutters and behind these doors 

Our story's about to unfold 

I gather the will to end my mission 

With the seven witches tied at the stakes 

And as the audience is ghasping for air 

I prepare to revel in the flesh 

And now the feast is here, as the maidens fair 

Are cleansed by the flames 

Preordained 

As I falter by every word 

Summoning all but the Lord himself 

For as the shape reveals as prophesied in the "good book" 

It all seams somewhat twisted to what I've 

Learned to believe to be the man not the beast 

I've (now) somehow succumbed to without 

Knowing what made me sacrifice 

All that's dead to be by the hand of the Lord 

... Oh Lord why have you turned on me? 

... Oh Lord you sought me out 

Behind this curtain of my everyday life 

And now it seams the only one to die 

Is me...
