[5:58]



By the Moon's haze and Northern Moonlight. 

Upon the Earth he rode. 

He seeks that which never was 

and never (is) to become. 

The Moon rose, it was crimson in color,

as if the night saw the coming fall 

that once crushed your domain. 

It ever comes again. 



And again. <i>[6x]



The moon shone with a fuller red. 

As a cross he was drawn to the Earth. 

What once has been shall be no more. 

Death, he craves his next. 

It is decreed. 



Oh, Lord, hide me from the secret council of the
wicked 

and from these wretched words of iniquity. 

For my enemies be against me, 

and they have laid waste my soul in council
together. 

Defend me from he that rises up against me. 

Save me from he that bears horns...

cloven hooves. 

For he lies in wait for my soul 

and desires to take it down a fiery pit. 



The wraith descends to a world 

to feed upon Man's soul. 

See you perished, fall. 

So by the stone, decrees of faith. 

Their kingdom lost. 



The Moon rose, it was crimson in color. 

Tolled one bell. 

What once crushed your domain, 

it ever comes again.



And again <i>[6x]
