CANDLEMASS LYRICS

1. Splendor Demon Majesty

Good morning, demon majesty
You shine like a diamond, you are
One of the three, the epiphany
The father, the rising star

You give the satanic symphony
I know that you're titanic and black
I feel your love, the affinity
I'm glad your highness is back

I know your venom is winning
Master of shade and shame
Will you give us a new beginning
Or just orchestrate the end?

Open the gates
Splendor demon majesty
Hear the doomsday bell
A grand wonderful fantasy
Oh, you wear the pall
Splendor demon majesty
You, you are my all
A celebration of sin
You are

Good morning, demon majesty
The king of kings you are
Lead us into seduction
Bringer of truth and shock

In the light of the tortured horizon
Doom's in your eyes
There you stand at the devil station
Death draws nigh

Open the gates
Splendor demon majesty
Hear the doomsday bell
A grand wonderful fantasy
You, you wear the pall
Splendor demon majesty
You are my all
A celebration of sin
You are

Splendor demon majesty
A grand wonderful fantasy
I sold my soul
I sold my soul
To the sound of 666

2. Under the Ocean

Behind the droll
The ocean flow
Beneath the eye will surface
There's a hole

The deadly climb
An endless line
And there you are
Night after night

[?]
Cemetery waters
Just like lemmings, glowing spirits
The day of the weak now
Never fucking tolerate
Echoes be gone
Lift the garden off my mind

The dead shall walk
Out from the lifeless dark

[?]
Ghost of silence, hands holding fire
Debt collector, reparations in the morning
[?] ocean, no one said you were coming

The dead shall walk
Out from the lifeless dark
From under my skin
The ocean will end

Lie drunk and sway
From the salty grave
Sixty thousand slaves under rain
Stars align
Clouds sweep by
Soon the bleak and forgotten will arrive

Debt collector, reparations in the morning
Just like lemmings, glowing spirits
The day of the weak now
Watch all the falling rain
Echoes be gone
Lift the garden off my mind

The dead shall walk
Out from the lifeless dark
From under my skin
The ocean will end
The ocean will end
The ocean will end

3. Astorolus - The Great Octopus

[feat. Tony Iommi]

In the folds of mythology
Never died, never born
Demented god, a monstrosity
Oh, you block the sun

Octopus... the point of no return
You are the hunger... the one
There you wait, for moon and man to fall
From the wall of the world

Guardian of Nyx
Epic in the abyss
At the earthfall
There's a mountain of skulls

You swallow the earth

Astorolus

Spearhead, beak and tusk
Your arms, like silver in dusk
Into the depths we are thrust
You will swallow us
Astorolus - the great octopus

4. Bridge of the Blind

Bridge of the blind
Take me somewhere
Away to an unknown land
And from where I was before
What would I find
If I open my eyes?
One foot, then another
Straight into the bottom lands

Here I stand
On the bridge of the blind
Can't see where I'm going
Or what I leave behind

Almost goodbye
On the bridge of the blind
No sign of summer
On the other side

Here I stand
On the bridge of the blind
Can't see where I'm going
Or what I leave behind

Almost goodbye
On the bridge of the blind
No sign of summer
On the other side

What would I find
If open my eyes?
Will you be waiting
On the other side?

5. Death's Wheel

In the absence of bible and king
I close my gaze, 'fore one last good spin
Resurrection, sermon, or prey
I'm a Jonah in the throat of the whale

Charon waves, grins from his oar
I am snow-blind, the frost of the north
Tomorrow's sun falls to the sea
As the reaper's got his hand on the wheel

Come come closer
The wheel is spinning round and round
I'm so alive
Tonight the palace bleeds
Heaven or hell
Right or left, life or death
Come come closer
The wheel is spinning round and round

Crucified in the gallery of screams
Another fool on the carousel of dreams
I licked the stars as an enemy of time
Now I'm here, and every second is mine

Come come closer
The wheel is spinning round and round
I'm so alive
Tonight the palace bleeds
Heaven or hell
Right or left, life or death
Come come closer
The wheel is spinning round and round

In the absence of bible and king
You live and die for one last good spin
Resurrection, sermon, or prey
I'm a Jonah in the throat of the whale

Come come closer
The wheel is spinning round and round
I'm so alive
Tonight the palace bleeds
Heaven or hell
Right or left, life or death
Come come closer
The wheel is spinning round and round

6. Black Trinity

Agents of abomination
Trinity of the damned
One devil that kills, one that takes
One that calls me his son

The wave will hit you soon
The ambassadors of doom

Black trinity - tidal wave
Black trinity - until we close our days
Black trinity - set me free
Black trinity - imagery or reality

Hell's disciples, lords of disaster
From the pits they're marching faster
Flaming angels on burning thrones
In Sheol's golden semi dome

The wave will hit you soon
The ambassadors of doom

Black trinity - tidal wave
Black trinity - until we close our days
Black trinity - set me free
Black trinity - imagery or reality

Tyrants of hurt, nails in the spine
Walking the earth, the dirty divine
Gothic idols in human guise
They keep on truckin' 'til the sparkle dies

Black trinity
Black trinity

7. House of Doom

Darker than amber
Dark like your bones
Clearer than crystal
In the death of the sun
Built on the ruins
Of the black angel’s tomb
The house of madness
Awake, burning for you

Welcome to the house of doom
A church of evil, a labyrinth of rooms
We are the children of the moon
We keep the dark alive in the house of doom

Like a finger to the gods
The tower it stands
Exhibition of evil
Monumental and grand
Floor on floor of fear
Temptation, decay
I’m cold, sinister
I’m wicked and strange

Welcome to the house of doom
A church of evil, a labyrinth of rooms
We are the children of the moon
We keep the dark alive in the house of doom

Like a statement of the sick
A mansion of grief
If you walk into the house
You will never leave

Welcome to the house of doom
A church of evil, a labyrinth of rooms
We are the children of the moon
We keep the dark alive in the house of doom

8. The Omega Circle

I had a dream last night, a vision, a prelude?
Outside my body, I was free to do
All things under the sun, and everything I want
My head awake and clear, for everybody to hear
And like the brightest day... it fades away...

Revelation and progress
Thorns to the weak
We are the eve of the ugly
The dawn of the new everything

Here is love, here is sunrise
Assassination of the old
Here's peeling off corrosion
When he killing off the burdens that you have

We are the Alpha / Omega
The blessing, the curse
Wield the order in chaos
Execution and birth

In the midnight hour
And your soul's devoured
We go into the mass
Oh your heart is aching
And you feel forsaken
We go to black mass

A dream last night, and I wonder, was it true?
I saw a big machine, in a velvet castle room
Inside the doom club, the spice, the cloak and dagger
And the pentagram, I think I understand

More cyclones, more witches
Inside the circle and the ring
In the ruins lies the future
Another dimension, another fling

We are the Alpha / Omega
The blessing, the curse
Wield the order in chaos
Execution and birth

No, no, no...

In the midnight hour
And your soul's devoured
We go into the mass
Oh your heart is aching
And you feel forsaken
We go to black mass
Oh people, keep the light on
We bring a new sensation
Enjoy the mass
