PALE DIVINE LYRICS

1. Nocturne Dementia

[Instrumental]

2. The Prophet

In my dreams, I've seen visions so profound
Images revealed to me

All is lost, may their souls now rest in peace
Never will they rise again

The madness grows and swallows me as I begin to see
What was meant to be my destiny?

Sanctity, is it only in my mind?
Or will it be reality?

Prophecy, has the future been foretold?
Or is it just insanity?

Warning signs are all around
No mercy for the blind
Innocence cries out in pain
What chaos will tomorrow find?

No future for the world we know
The reaper comes to claim his own
The end is here we can’t ignore
So shut your eyes and cry no more

3. Angel Of Mercy

Don’t tell me I’m dreaming
I know this is real
No sense in denying the way that I feel

Angel of mercy
Vision in white
She holds the key to eternal light

So long I have wandered alone every day
Waiting for someone to show me the way

Angel of mercy
Vision in white
She holds the key to eternal light

…and then without warning came pain and despair
Awakened to find that she was never there

Searching for something that I’ll never find
This angel of mercy was all in my mind

Angel of mercy
Vision in white
She holds the key to eternal light

Cursed by desire
Bewitched by its spell
Reaching for heaven to save me from hell

4. End Of Days

I believe there is nothing that can save this world we’re in
Still we proceed, but won’t succeed
When trying to alleviate our sins, we must concede

And realize that’s the way it is and so shall stay
Until we close our eyes and end our days
What did the maker have in mind when hand held clay?
And did he know we’d throw it all away?

Who are we and do we know just where our purpose lies?
Our eyes are blind
By his design temptation takes a hold of weaker minds
Damned for all time

We compromise our values for a momentary gain
To compensate for our internal pain
What do we need to do to reach a higher plane?
Or are we doomed to live a life insane?

When will it end?
When will we see the error of our ways?
Will we descend when we reach the end of days?

So far away, from where subconscious minds would choose to be
Why can’t we see?
All we fear, in our own image in another’s eyes
The mirror lies

This soul has died, a sacrificial rite to be reborn
Upon this sight the lesser blessed will mourn
But they are blind to the ones whose hearts are torn
The sinner’s deeds will bear the makers scorn

Free my soul
Take the pain
Release me from these chains so I can live again

Hear the call
He awaits
I see the fallen one beyond infernal gates

5. Black Coven

One by one the servants of the night convene in secrecy
It has begun black magic ritual obscene, a blasphemy

Thirteen minds aligned
Have gathered once again, so it begins
Upon this hallowed night
Their souls will be condemned for all their sins

I can see demonic shadows in the night
A dreadful night

Haunting me like specters in the pale moon light
Unearthly bright

Thirteen minds aligned
Have gathered once again, so it begins
Upon this hallowed night
Their souls will be condemned for all their sins

Baptized by the devils rain
Their wicked minds must be insane
They bow their heads as if to pray
Their master speaks and they obey
Lord of this infernal world
Reveals himself as was foretold
Tortured by demonic cries
The end unfolds before my eyes

Thirteen minds aligned
Have gathered once again, so it begins
Upon this hallowed night
Their souls will be condemned for all their sins

6. The Desolate

Surrounded by walls, confining me
This desolation mocks my final plea

Another scar I feel the pain
Can’t find the strength to face the strain
I set my course, no turning back
Damnation turns my world to black

So withdrawn, my mind is numb
I watch it all become undone

A growing fear, my own disgrace
A drowning mind in a dark embrace
The silence deafening my ears
It wields the shackles that I’ve worn for years

No god above, no hell below
This is the only world I know
The path I chose has lead me here
And now the time has come to face my fear

I’ve served my time, I’ve served it well
Now I’m nothing, but an empty shell

I can’t forgive, I won’t forget
I’ll turn my back with no regret
All I had is what I gave
An empty soul, a shallow grave

No god above, no hell below
This is the only world I know
The path I chose has lead me here
And now the time has come to face my fear

There is no hope for tomorrow
I’m longing for my dying day
I will not wander in sorrow
Death is just a breath away

7. Shadow Soul (The Awakening)

Show me the places forgotten by time
The dark empty spaces deep inside my mind

There once was a purpose, a grasp of the real
Now all that is left, is the coldness I feel

Did I leave the world behind?
Or was I abandoned?
Searching for truth but I end up empty handed

I’ve waited forever, now take me away
The seventh day of never, the time is today

The nightmare is over, the dream has begun
A new day is dawning, I rise with the sun

Did I leave the world behind?
Or was I abandoned?
Searching for truth but I end up empty handed

8. Painted Windows Black

Nothing more than what you see
Is just as it appears still the other half was waiting
Silent, all these years

I tried to close my eyes
I tired to wish it all away
Knowing all the while there soon would come a day

Now the time has come
I won’t stay silent anymore
Now the other half will be the man I was before

I closed the inner sanctum of a tortured mind
Painted all of the windows black and left the world behind
