SERPENTHIA LYRICS
"Of Descent And Betrayal" (2004 Demo)
1. The Deception
2. Goddess Reborn
3. Into Salvation
1. The Deception
Just another night among the others
But this time it'll also end an era
I am the one chosen to this task
And with great pleasure succeeded
Greef drives me through the time
She cannot disappear, only flee
That silhouette of a gothic cathedral against a stark light
Represents the violent feeling of this stormy sky
This is just another sick display of grotesque might
Everything beautiful has to wither and die
This is my sacrifice.. For those who dwell behind
Thou art my sacrifice.. To bring forth our time
Walking through the field of fallen stars
Her scent is fading
These nightmares come again
No time nor need to repent
This feeling of chase and her fear
Makes me grin and this I swear
No need to cry nor be afraid
This shall be Thy fate
To the catacombs under this burned ground
Beneath the dusky woods of eternity
Where withering leaves of life gather
I shall let them have her
Pale faces everywhere
Staring at her, wanting her
She may be our saviour
But none of us cares.. Anymore
Amazed is her gaze as she finally understands
All her children have turned against her will
Her mind and body torn asunder
And the loyal one imprisoned
My heart is cold as I drag her deeper down
This is her final night and she'll lose her crown
Her tears turned to red coloured pearls, red as blood
That I drained from her veins along with others.. Of my kind
Thy moment is now gone and we shall rule from now on
She fell on the floor
Ancient queen now forlorn
Nothing to us but a useless whore
Her blood was spilled to the door..
2. Goddess Reborn
Candles cast their light onto the ancient walls
Shades rising from sepulchre to answer nights call
Closed doors of mausoleum open with a screech
As dusk forces the last rays of sun to flee
Era of her dominion is at hand
She once was might that heaven could not accept
Only a mortal but merely a god
Her price was great for she was doomed
Powers withdrawn cast into darkness
But in those years in expulsion
She found others like herself
Forceless, imprisoned for aeons
Mist rises from the below
Covers her from mortal stairs
Autumn's leaves whisper her arrival
Rising of the queen fallen
Those shades once so mighty now frail
Gathered their powers to unite the hollows
With pleasure she embraced the kindred of night
Became what prophecy said, would conquer light
The fatal beauty to behold
Skin so pale and cold
Dress of crimson tears
Violent wind blows
Divinity glows
On the grave of those
Who died in throes
By cruel goddess with no
Mercy nor pity to behold
Snow falls from sky above
Hides her thoughts from heaven
Winter breeze screams her arrival
Rising of the queen fallen
3. Into Salvation
Closed are eyes as wind passes by
Telling tale of rise and fall
Of mightiest of them all
Never shall the rays of sun warm this soul
He was my kind
Tried to take away from what was mine
I was judged, tortured and torn
But that was not enough they wanted more
To make ordeal even greater
They ordered me to betray her
It shall end here for His light is not what I yearn
(His light is what I scorn)
I was thrown away with few others
They lost hope and became what was reckonned
I sought for salvation in the night
hoping to find my place among the forsaken
Now I have seen the sun and never want to return again
He couldn't see that the sentence he passed on me would cause me pleasure
(It caused pleasure)
Sent into darkness I truly see
This is where I belong and where I'm free
Palaces of light and gold were not for me
But this caressing darkness with Thee
I once walked on his side
But in Thy embrace I see the lies of light
This love I swear shall last forever more
Sent into darkness I truly see
This is where I belong and where I'm free
Palaces of light and gold were not for me
But this caressing darkness with Thee
Take my hand lead the way
Take us into a better place
Take me though there isn't much
I'm nothing but angel's distortion
I', like a child still scarred afraid betrayed
Woulds Thou still come and stay
She wore nothing but ghastly smile
My belove reincarnated Aphrodite
(My Aphrodite)
