The Night Masquerade (Dimmu Borgir cover) Lyrics


A scarlet sunset

 The threshold to nightplay

 A sinful oath is to be sworn

 A beckoning bloodlust

 Among the seekers

 Tyrannic hunger yearns



A gathering in flames and fires

 Devil's daughters dance

 Scourged in filth obscene and lewd

 Longing to dark desires



The nocturnal beast appears

 In an evil despotic shape

 Expectant watching gracelessly

 Before demanding the sluts of lust

 (the Beast: )

 "Come forth harlots, let's begin!"

 (the Beast approaches: )

 "Rise and give praise in front of Me

 And receive eternal life from Me!

 Welcome my spirit in honour of Me!

 So drink of the blood I provide you

 And you shall all forever wander in

 The shadows of death...!



(the chanting whores: )

 "Oh yes, Master! Let us receive

 Thine offer and drink with thee!

 And become a part of Thy realm

 With lust, sex and sodomy

 For we are those who seek life eternally...!



(the Beast: )

 "Blood is life and it shall be all ours!"
