John Blanche - I For An Eye lyrics

[introduction] This tale i tell that all may see Behind god's truth lurks treachery [voice of god] 'mine is the right to glory and light And you shall have heartache and pain Yours must be hell - For in heaven i'll dwell I care not for that earthly domain.' [host of righteous angels] 'for crimes against divinity - The loneliness of purgatory Your kingdom rule - humanity Mankind shall be your hell.' [lucifer] 'why have you done this to me - Tell me what is my crime I'm tried and convicted - Guilty the fate that is mine You say i'm a devil - Then by hell the devil i'll be.' [narration] 'as aeons pa**ed without cessation - Brewing hatred from damnation In darkness satan waited - Laughed as god the earth created And man in his own image made - Unaware that plans were laid 'till from the dark eternal night - A serpent crawled into the light And so from darkness a rage without measure - Burst spreading the cancer 'cross eden Corrupting and tempting and never relenting Abusing man's newly found freedom.' [lucifer] 'out of the abyss i come the avenger Shapeless and faceless - yet i have a name I shall tighten my grip on your now flawed creation Endeavour to show you the meaning of pain.' 'it soothes my heart To see you cry When i am done You will learn as i - To suffer in hell.' 'impaled on the horns of a dilema - It seems what were my nightmares Are now naught but dreams For you who have riches know paradise well And i who have nothing am burning in hell
