"Of Nails And Sinners" lyrics
"Of Nails And Sinners"
I beseech you, god, to whom many sinners pray
From the depth of the dark abyss where my heart fell
Expelled I was from your tedious grace to the pits of hell
So can you, please, cease to deplore my opposite, nay only way
For aeons I descended down
Till I saw the dreadful truth
Of which man wouldn't know
I, degraded bearer of thy sacred light
To which I never again will bow
When I rise to avenge myself with darkness
The anger of the damned shall flow
I was cast out by the retinue of angels weak
Shone to the few who me would seek
A rebel I was, radiant my glow, afar
My wisdom fathomed by the morning star
And o you fools, in herdlike fight, stampede
And when creation falls, you must build anew
With nails that sting my hands - they grow passionate on a lie
But you know the veracious one was I
