Arcturus - Master Of Disguise Lyrics
Hear!From this day forthare the heights of Horeb brokenand the sea of sulphur-ice.And blasphemy!in heaven's chambers:Souls had fled their hallsand closed was the book of life.And behold!The great, white throne:blackwith sacred bloodOur father -Dead by his own hands:an epitaphworthy no king.And so is everythinga nameless lie.Who, my god,am I?Man knows meas Lucifer, the serpent of old.The wretched hold my banner high.Your gift- all life! -I grant a graveYet I am not your death.Come carry forth the crownto your once held throne.Here is where my suffering should cease- but alas; I am crownedin grief unheard of!In this lone monarchy- without a friend of foe -I greet the mourning sunwith strife and a song:Please speak my name!And leave me notin the dust of death.I am weighed downbeneath the tragedy crown, -nameless,and alone,a fatherless son.
