The Divine Wings of Tragedy Songtext
On the edge of paradise
Tears of woe fall, cold as ice
Hear my cry
Renounce, have you, thy name
Eternal is my pain
Eternal is the pain that leads me (is my)
To the thrones of temptation (pain that)
Leads me to the thrones of temptation
(Leads me to the thrones of temptation)
Eternal (eternal) is my pain
That leads me to the thrones (that leads me to temptation)
There was a time
When choirs sang the endless melody
Of light, music of the spheres
There was a place
Where mortals embraced thunder and majesty
Their fate lay in our hands
Feel my wings slowly fading
Forever lost in time
I cry
The burning conflict I′m feeling
It summons me to descend into the other side
And just beyond the stars blazing
A beam of light from a blood, velvet moon
Illuminates me
I will devise, from perfect skies
A dark and vengeful day
Faith and mercy gone astray
With strength of infinite measure
The mighty sword divides order
From chaos in the kingdom below
And from the mansions of glory
This empty soul cries out one final plea
The end has begun
Our worlds collide
Now in disguise, you'll feel the wrath divine
Tears of woe fall from the sky
The prophet cries
Vast battalions rage on in the sky
Rising from the north
The bringer of war
Eve of destruction
Summon all who have the power of fire
Impending doom from shore to shore
Standing on the edge of paradise
I sacrifice my truth and loyalty
Seven deadly sins consume you all
A dance with death, I taste the victory
Rising from the north, the warrior prince (eternal is)
Judgement without compassion (the pain that)
Eyes of fear (leads me to temptation)
Like the river Styx, the gates of hell (eternal is)
Abandon hope all ye who enter here (leads me to temptation)
The prophets cry
Armies fall from the edge of the sky
The prince of truth, now the bringer of war
The day of wrath
Banish all kings from the face of the land
Dominion, for strength is my name
Looking out on a blue sky
I can see a new world arising
Like a prisoner unbound
I feel the power and the majesty again
Looking up to the heavens
I can see what I left behind
Beneath the stars, moon and warm sun
And all I know is my paradise has begun
Tears of woe fall, cold as ice
Hear my cry
Renounce, have you, thy name
Eternal is my pain
Eternal is the pain that leads me (is my)
To the thrones of temptation (pain that)
Leads me to the thrones of temptation
(Leads me to the thrones of temptation)
Eternal (eternal) is my pain
That leads me to the thrones (that leads me to temptation)
There was a time
When choirs sang the endless melody
Of light, music of the spheres
There was a place
Where mortals embraced thunder and majesty
Their fate lay in our hands
Feel my wings slowly fading
Forever lost in time
I cry
The burning conflict I′m feeling
It summons me to descend into the other side
And just beyond the stars blazing
A beam of light from a blood, velvet moon
Illuminates me
I will devise, from perfect skies
A dark and vengeful day
Faith and mercy gone astray
With strength of infinite measure
The mighty sword divides order
From chaos in the kingdom below
And from the mansions of glory
This empty soul cries out one final plea
The end has begun
Our worlds collide
Now in disguise, you'll feel the wrath divine
