Opera IX - Act I: The First Seal Lyrics
Dark and forgotten the times of these writingsTimeless stones shape the walls of this siteArcane and powerful symbols traced on themMay the moon lead my stepsIn the sacred search of supreme knowledgeWaiting for his comingAnd it was gloomSomewhere in timeIn unknown lands ruled by an ancient magicIn titanic forests6 towers of power were builtThey guarded 6 sacred heirlooms,Protected by 6 sealsThey show the effigy of the godWho sits on the big black throneI mesmerize my soulTo fly along the dusty paths ofAcheronLooking for the magic circle of the black ringToth Amon, prince of enchantersTell me your secretOr I will tear it from death to deathRunning on a human blood riverHe feeds on bloodThe blood calls himHis strength glows if the handsinvoking him are stained with bloodWhere he shines, the blood is shedThere the light's kingdoms wobbleThere nature forces are shakenThoth-Amon, give me the sword of sacrificeAnd the sacred cup I am gonna fill with lifebloodGive me the lance of almightinessAnd the potsherds of the black stoneI'm gonna place on the altar of DagonEntrust the sixth heirloom to meAnd so be it!And then a whirlwind struck mybreast, freezing my soulThe candle flames vanishedannouncing his coming5 the tips and 5 the elementsIt is the blood in which I annihilateThe sixth is the knowledge thesupreme god, the bringer of lightEngraved in the sixth heirloomThe sacred book ordained to the devotee
