Lyrics
Behind the Veil of Nights
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Free me from these nasty chains, pull the same robe if tragedy
Don't forget what blind hate stole, bite into my hidden frontier
Rebel forces familiar with arms, fuming livid plots of despair
Interventions go wild with belief, overpowered by cagey disease
Torn apart by the blitzing thunderbolts
Screams are piercing through the dark
Speed-raging sharks of death and decay
Re-emerging from behind the veil of nights
We are burning out their might
Bring out the sparks of bliss and delight
Laurel wreath of victory, wilderness, sham prophecies
Nights of fire have cast a glow over sleeping humanities
Draw on forces to guard and shield, city of death and unity
Revolutions and playing God; drag themselves through calamity
Torn apart by the blitzing thunderbolts
Screams are piercing through the dark
Speed-raging sharks of death and decay
Re-emerging from behind the veil of nights
We are burning out their might
Bring out the sparks of bliss and delight
Save us from this tortured evil, deliver us from evil torture
Henchmen of the damned let loose the agonizing lurking glows
Lead us to the end of hell, lead us to the blessing well
Instruments of God; an after-echo of a worthless war
In the face of ghastly creatures, in the face of the feeble-minded
Fear of hounding, fear of pounding, fear of the preserving silence
Enmity in the ranks of peace, enmity in the breathing deceased
Marks the end of sheer devotion, radiation reigns supremely
Torn apart by the blitzing thunderbolts
Screams are piercing through the dark
Speed-raging sharks of death and decay
Re-emerging from behind the veil of nights
We are burning out their might
Bring out the sparks of bliss and delight
Torn apart by the blitzing thunderbolts
Screams are piercing through the dark
Speed-raging sharks of death and decay
Re-emerging from behind the veil of nights
We are burning out their might
Bring out the sparks of bliss and delight
Behold the night and witness your life, witness it all fade away
Take the blame and burn the flame for the state of emergency
Horror and caution, final dawn of precaution, the innermost circle of hell
Utter defeat has made us all bleed; the heart of the world is destroyed
