SONG LYRICS & CHORDS (D)

Holy Diver / You've been down too long in the midnight sea / Oh, what's becoming of me?...

And then the dark / I’ve been way beyond your universe / And I’ve seen things that I should never tell...

If I leave / Would you wait for me? / If I fall...

It makes you feel good, tastes so high / Creeping numbing fingertips / As a vision passes through my mind...

Born to be kings but defeated by time / Black Country dreams they were leased for a while / But the way to glory and love is through pain...

The spirits rise in the dead man’s tomb / Worlds deprived under his name / He rides above your city...

A canvas made of skin and painted by their tears / In the colours of the damned / The lies will tell the truth in the suffocating lands...

The voices cry for a broken spirit / Whispers ‘rest in peace now’, weeping for him in secret / The night breaks though the clouds as witness...

Beware the voice that crushes steel / For where the wicked rise and seal the earth / They young will stand to bring about the reckoning...

Staring into the dark / Cold hands wrapped around the heart / A quiet war and a hidden truth...

Out of the furnace and into the fire / It’s a cruel game of death and desire / You can say his name and preach to the choir...

A thousand years have passed since I walked upon her shores / A thousand tears have cracked the salty face of this earth / And is there no one else whom can walk upon her shores...

While the crows are circling my bones / And I’m crucified upon their stones / I’ll take the time to send off a gallows grin...

Stench of human entities / The absolute of sin / Degeneration dominating...

Oh to be the fire, I am just a man / Oh to walk the wire, believing that I can / And reach on down your throat...

Took a little time, before we’re done to love me / Took a little more than I ever did before / Took your bad intentions...

Välkomna till detta / En gång så levande / Som nu bara är död...

Utopia is a part of humanity / And nothing will change / All is beyond the plan of life...

Beat down, fucked up. / I'm drinkin' blood from the devil's cup. / Now what you tell me....

IN A STATE OF ARRESTED DECAY / DETERMINED TO REPEAT / THE SAME MISTAKE...

Like a blind tern / Its flight is caged, its wings are weighted and drawn / Like highs with low ends...

I muffle your inner choir / Rehearsing twisted screams / Level the jesters dream...

You buy your home / And follow a dream / No politics here...

Der, Ved evighetens Utkikkspost / The old star dies for us all / An equator of tragedy...

Half-hearted black-hearted rams / Interstellar fugitives / Doing their bit for the universal dam...

Too old to wring the secret from the master / The well you encountered as a child / Merely acknowledging the beacon now...

The key is inside the wall / Every wall. Every way / Every minute. You don't understand...

As the cycles of the moon draw to an end / To that night where only the stars can see / Where darkness conceals the horror...

A fate forever unknown / As the spiraling illusions swell / Within this chaos comes calm...

The bell tolls for my passing / Put to rest in the moist ground / So dark and reminiscent...
