The Silent Sun

Come with me now into the depths of hell

Walk with me now to where the angel fell

Cross the rivers death, pain and fear

And abandon all hope, ye who enter here

Down in the dark he awaits

Charon, and he will take us through the gates

Of hell on his boat to the shore

Of the night and the nevermore

Down now

Walk with us now

Dream with us now

And then sleep now

In silence

Dante: I see them wander

They are those without faith

As spiritless hollows, and bodiless wraiths

Here see them hurled, the restless and wild

Those wanton hearts

Whom their lust hath beguiled

Choir: Cerberus!

Virgil: In the shadows lies here

Choir: Watching us!

Virgil: As the gluttonous are writhing in the pits

Here with the dark spawn of the world

Choir: Hunger burn!

Virgil: In the greedy who will

Never learn to be satisfied with what they've earned

Dante: And smolder in the fires

Till the debts are all returned

Dante: Madness arise in the circle of lies

Bow to the fallen, the lord of the flies

In the circles of the nine

Where the sun in silence lies tonight

Where the darkest spirits shine

In eternal ice their lord resides

In the circles of the nine

What was hidden now shall come to light

Where the damned appear divine

And the silent sun will weep for you tonight

It has begun, The Silent Sun

Virgil: Crossing Styx' waters

When at last you shall see

Those drowned in their anger, an infernal decree

Dante: Those who have fallen in dark heresy

Are buried in fire, and they cry out to me

Choir: Minotaur!

Dante: With violence fallen

Choir: Burn them out!

Dante: And turn them into cinders and then raise

Their brazen ashes to the skies

Choir: Let them grow!

Virgil: In the muddy waters

Down below with the price

They must pay for their lies

Dante: As trees that never die

Along the shores of silent cries

Virgil: Madness arise in the circle of lies

Bow to the fallen, the lord of the flies

In the circles of the nine

Where the sun in silence lies tonight

Where the darkest spirits shine

In eternal ice their lord resides

In the circles of the nine

What was hidden now shall come to light

Where the damned appear divine

And the silent sun will weep for you tonight

Here we are one, The Silent Sun

Caina! Antenora!

Caina! And Juddeca!

Caina! Ptolomea!

Drowning in the river

Caina! Antenora!

Caina! And Juddeca!

Caina! Ptolomea!

Drowning here forever

Dante: in the dark heart of hell

In a lake of frozen fire

Virgil: Here resides the one, the lord of hell's desire

Dante: The fallen angel cries, eternal pain incarnate

Virgil: The failure of mankind

With eyes of steel and garnet

Virgil: Here we pay the price

For all our heart's desire

Dante: Hear the lord of lies

His wings are beating higher

Both: The centre of the world

We wander on despairing

On the other side unfurled

Comes the Silent Sun on glaring

In the circles of the nine

Where the sun in silence lies tonight

Where the darkest spirits shine

In eternal ice their lord resides

In the circles of the nine

What was hidden now shall come to light

Where the damned appear divine

And the silent sun

Won't weep for you tonight

It shall be done, The Silent Sun
