"Night Raids" lyrics

"Night Raids"

The heat of the night, it surrounds me
Sweeping blood across the land
Angel of death by the moonlight
Silent the unseen command

I bring the end from the kingdom beyond
Take all their lives, not just their firstborn son
Vision is clear in the black and the steel
The all-seeing eye as I kill

Under the darkness there's no escape
Lost to the desert, lay dead on these plains
Souls in the black fear the night raids

The rivers run, Red Sea is rising
No where safe, their final stand
Lost in a wave of destruction
No life upon these cursed sands

Only death rings from the heavens above
Take all their lives, not just their firstborn son
My vision's clear in the black and the still
The all-seeing eye as I kill

Under the darkness there's no escape
Lost to the desert, lay dead on these plains
Souls in the black fear the night raids

And on the eve of destruction, death stalks these lands
A choir of unholy angels call to the damned
The songs they sing to forgive and bow and fight as yet
Forever buried in fire, eternal slaves

Under the darkness there's no escape
Lost to the desert, lay dead on these plains
Souls in the black fear the night raids (night raids)
Under the darkness there's no escape
Lost to the desert, lay dead on these plains
Souls in the black fear the night raids
No screams in the night, only quiet on the sleigh
I am the serpent upon desert plains
Souls in the black fear the night raids
