The Vision of Death

Looking down from the cross I'm nailed on,
seeing an angel with a blade shining bright,
getting slowly ready to strike the final blow (he says),
"When you come back - you'd better walk in the light"
Preparing to be struck by his wrath,
I lower my head and get ready to die,
suddenly he goes down with a painful cry,
and I see demons falling from the sky.
That is my dream of the apocalypse,
that is the nightmare, which takes my sleep,
the dream I fear most - the vision of death,
where I fail - my life to keep.
As I see them attacking my henchmen,
thousands of reasons come to my mind,
why evil spawns should try to free me,
as I realise I'm one of their kind.
The massacre goes on, the angels die,
one by one - killed by their hands,
but it is too late for me,
at last I die - the nightmare ends.
That is my dream of the apocalypse,
that is the nightmare, which takes my sleep,
the dream I fear most - the vision of death,
where I fail - my life to keep.
