Eternal rains will come
Demon of the fall
The devil's orchard
The grand conjuration
Deliverance
Eternal rains will come
Eternal rains will come
We should say goodbye
And suffer on our own
As all our thoughts were wrong

So hard to keep the darkness from seeping through
And when the flood comes to drown us
There is nothing we can do

You told me not to wait
Unless I could wait forever
Because there is no time for us
Take comfort in what was

So hard to keep the darkness from seeping through
And when the flood comes to drown us
There is nothing we can do

Here it comes, our death comes
And in my sleep I can't forget

Reaching for the surface, I see you
				
top

Demon of the fall
Silent dance with death.
Everything is lost.
Torn by the arrival of Autumn.
The blink of an eye, you know it's me.
You keep the dagger close at hand.
And you saw nothing.
False love turned to pure hate.
The wind cried a lamentation
before merging with the grey.
Demon of the fall.
Gasping for another breath.
She rose, screaming at closed doors.
Seductive faint mist forging
through the cracks in the wall.
I shant resist.
In tears for all of eternity.
She turned around and faced me for the first time.
Run away, run away.
Just one second, and I was left with nothing.
Her fragrance still pulsating through damp air.
That day came to an end.
And she had lost in me, her CREDENCE.

The devil's orchard
This is obsidian
The grip of winter unkind
Devil will follow
Be cast out and sworn to the dark
Take the road where devils speak
God is dead, God is dead

Throw out the darkness
Inside you, telling you now
Senses corrupted
Controlling a poisonous will
Take the road where devils speak
God is dead, God is dead

In the corner of my eye
Demon fades from the hole

Led the blind
Search you'll find
A pathway to the sun
Saw the signs
Intertwined
Forgave me all my sins
Why, Why
Oh, stigmas revealing our vices
And oh, oh, stigmas revealing our vices

The grand conjuration
 Majesty
Faithful me
Pour yourself
Into me

Wield your power
Martyr's price
Stare me down
To the ground

Slake my thirst
Eternal wealth
Heathen key
Round my neck

This poetry
Our blasphemy
Know the sounds
Of infamy

The eyes of the devil
Fixed on his sinners

The hands of Satan
Assembling his flock
Pale horse rider
Searching the earth

Whispered conjuration
A belief takes form
Choking hand tapping
The veins in your throat

His orders in your mouth
A decree for domination
Beneath the tides of wisdom
Spins the undertow of hate

Injected seeds of vengeance
Usurper's eyes of the powerless
Clean path to his kingdom
Beckoning in the mist

Tell my why
Love subsides
In the light
Of your wishes

Say my name
Ease the pain
Clear the smoke
In my head

Deliverance
Floating on mist
crept up by caverns of my brain
receving no warning
from nothing to a life code
walk with me, you?ll never leave
wait to see your spirit free
tell me how your heart?s in need
as i drown you in the sea
unvinding snares of distrust
your wrist in my face grip
look me in the eye, i?m clear
this is your time
face down beneath the waterline
gazing inteo the deep
from love to death
in a time span for seconds
oblvious to regret
pushed into belif
in liquid cellophane
gasping for air
mercy in my eyes
is the shade of the night
the piercing sounds you make
soaring higher, higer now
and ounce left in my wake
your memory is noting but the scars on me
all over now
forgotten why i need this
standing down
disappear into the obscure
resting days
waiting for new disease
biding time
looked inside insanity
at always burns within
the downward spiral never ends
when driven into sin
your salvation found in a sinner?s deed
the devil guids the day
tells me what to say
pours himself inside
and snuffs the final light

deliverance
thrown back at me

deliverance
laughing at me
