Moonblood

The Angel's Lament

Moonblood


Bloodless moon tonight forsakes the dead's last rest 
Scattered by frozen death winds 
Are the bones of all who died without remembrance 
Died alone their own special way 
To pay their sins and god's betrayal 
Heretic souls, forgotten and banished 
Dwelling in eternal punishment 
And rest in the dark on unblessed soil 
Can never again hold the torches of life 
And will never reach the eternity's fire 
Which they are longing for so many aeons 
Blind are god's eyes and falseness hides behind his face 
Not able to forgive past sins, but praises himself as your lord 
Wings unfold in the crimson dusk 
During thunder defeats darkness silence 
Storm is coming from the mountain side 
Came to pray for the dead's last will 
And louder than the loudest thunder their chants resound 
That all blood freezes by their sad melodies 
And mist rises up and all coffins burst 
Creeping shades arise with the angel's lament 
Panic is ruling, but it's too late to escape 
As bony fingers grip for white silk and ripping their sweet bloody skin 
Coming through the soil with the shadows, creeping evil 
They arise from graves, legions of the dead 
To wreck all what is of God 
Holding high the weapons they were buried with 
Swords and axes, armors of steel 
Iron blades cut the angel's flesh 
Screams of torment calling loud 
But suffocate shortly after 
And all voices grow silent 
As blades cut through their throats 
Blood and death, the dead's only war chant, conquers the grey mist 
Under moonlight, white and cold they die 
Suffocate on own holy blood 
And merciless slayers stalking through the darkness
