Lacrimae Mundi Lyrics


"Caught in thy net of shadows, what dreams hast thou to show?

Who treads the silent meadows, to worship thee below?"

Thee who wanders amongst the mortal, never see the light of day

Thee who watch the storm approaching, the darkness calls thy name

"Let the serpent tempt you to a sin, When the lowering sun dyes the crimson seas

And let the ravens lead you there, where no angels dare to tread or dream (sleep)..."

Thee who wanders amongst the mortal, never see the light of day

Thee who watch the storm approaching, the darkness calls thy name

Doth thou know of Majesty, of thine soul's nocternity

And velvet seas, that caress the distant shores?

Will they ever search for the truth

known by the great wise ones?

Will they ever find the truth

will they ever bleed the whores?

LACRIMAE MUNDI

"Whoever sheds the blood of a man by a man shall his blood be shed,

and vengeanced with the utter hatred..."

Nightmares haunt thy sleep at nights...

The laughter of chaos and scythe...

Why thee did against me?

None forbid, but thrusts to misery...

This means WAR !

...and the world shall cry forever...

Tape version :

Caught in thy net of shadows, what dreams hast thou to show?

Who treads the silent meadows, to worship thee below?

Thee who wanders amongst the mortal, never see the light of day

Thee who watch the storm approaching, the darkness calls thy name

Not of the seed of Adam we are

Nor is Abraham our father

But the seed of the proud angel we are

Driven forth from heaven down below

Thee who wanders amongst the mortal, never see the light of day

Thee who watch the storm approaching, the darkness calls thy name

Doth thou know of Majesty, of thine soul's nocternity

And velvet seas, that caress the distant shores?

Will they ever search for the truth

Known by the great wise ones?

Will they ever find the truth

will they ever bleed the whores?

LACRIMAE MUNDI (x2)

Whoever sheds the blood of a man by a man shall his blood be shed,

and vengeanced with the utter hatred...

They took the one who I loved from me

Then I learned how to spit on the face of their god...

This means WAR !

WAR ! ...and the world shall cry forever...

Will they ever search for the truth

known by the great wise ones?

Will they ever find the truth

will they ever bleed the whores?

LACRIMAE MUNDI

"Whoever sheds the blood of a man by a man shall his blood be shed,

and vengeanced with the utter hatred..."

Nightmares haunt thy sleep at nights...

The laughter of chaos and scythe...

Why thee did against me?

None forbid, but thrusts to misery...

This means WAR !

...and the world shall cry forever...
