VIRGIN STEELE LYRICS

1. A Symphony Of Steele

Magick speaks with tongues of Fire, Fortune take my hand
Iron pounding dongs of Glory, Soaring on command
Screaming I rejoin the fray

Take me where the thunder walks, A SYMPHONY OF STEELE
Take my where the falcon flies, A SYMPHONY OF STEELE

Sound the trumpet, crack the mountain, let the arrow fly
Through the land of Lamentation, let the tidings fly
Mercury, the God and I

[*]-Take me where the thunder walks, A SYMPHONY OF STEELE
Take me where the falcon flies, A SYMPHONY OF STEELE

Spark the ashes, free the temple, stem the crimson tide
Toll the bells of Freedom souting
Praise for those who've died
Wield the Sword of Destiny

[*]
A SYMPHONY OF STEELE

If passion denies you, don't die on your knees
Fight with a vengeance what weakness decrees
The Wrath of the Tempest, the cries of the slain
Tragic in splendor, in death you are free
I follow the Sign, bring on the sound of thunder,
bring on the rain
Spirit of Dark Enchantment remember my name!!!

A SYMPHONY OF STEELE

2. Crown Of Glory

Bury me beside the endless sea, raise ashes to the wind
Remember things I conquered in my time, quench my funeral
pyre with wine
Open your eyes and see me, running faster, running far
Open your heart and feel me, catch the light beyond the stars
Flesh and blood affirm the freedoms gain,
Are we born to live again?

I'll never die while the light races over my head,
I can see where we are
I will defy no respite from the challenge of war,
Crown of Glory Unscarred
Gaze at the sun unblinking, go where only eagles dare
Strike now while life is in you,
before the darkness eats your soul
Touch me now and feel your strength return,
speak the word within the word

I'll never die while the light races over my head,
I cansee where we are
Why must you cry for the life you are leaving behind,
Crown of Glory Unscarred
What was forbidden now is open,
the Golden Apples of the Sun
All that's alive consider Holy, Holy, Holy,
Body and Soul are reconciled
And Heaven and Hell remember their love,
and every road leads me to you
To Truth

I'm watching you now, I'm watching the signs,
I watch as the old false reason dies,
I see with new sight the infinite night,
drunk on the Wine of Paradise
I challenge the Nine in Heaven divine, the Crown and the
Glory all are mine
No longer denied with Eve as my bride the doors to the
Kingdom open wide
And every End is a Biginning, Victory waits within the fire.

I'll never die while the light races over my head,
I can see where we are
I will defy no respite from the Phantoms of War Crown of
Glory Unscarred
Bury me beside the endless sea, raise my ashes to the wind ...

3. From Chaos To Creation

[Instrumental]

4. Twilight Of The Gods

The mark of war is upon me the taste of blood's on my tongue
I'm the ruler of nations, I am second to none
Like a rainbow on fire, my axe gleams in the sun
Blinding my enenies when the battles begun

They'll see us fly on wings of glory, for the twilight hour's come
Here we ride on wings of fire, staring straight into the sun

The dark host marches eternal it's the last Great War
Spreading scenes of destruction unequaled before
Threre will be no winner, all are destined to die
And from the ashes a new world a vision of Light

Wath us fly on wings of glory, for the twilight hour's come
Here we ride on wings of fire, for the judgement of the Gods

A circle of fire Loki sings
A chorus of lies, the crownless King
Who rides on the wind, who rides on the sky?
Be gone

A circle of fire loud we sing
The Warhammer rides, the crownless King
Who writes on the wind the whisper of Life

Watch us fly on wings of glory, for the twilight hour's come
Here we ride on wings of fire, for the judgement of the Gods

5. Rising Unchaned

Piercing the veil of Eternity, lashed by the winds of Hades
Titan fists and Gods collide
From the caves of ice the Midgard Serpent roars
As the stars fall from the sky
War kills we die, with golden tears Odin falls

You're the deliverer-King Unchained
You're the deliverer-King Unchained

With a twilight kiss upon your frozen brow
Golden Dawn when you awake
You're the first and last whose coming was foretold
Crown of Glory, worlds unfold
Come forth arise, twelve Golden Dreams forge the prize

You're the deliverer-King Unchained
You're the deliverer-He Who Reigns

Meeting on the Twilight Bridge, the Giants of Jotenheim align
"against the Hosts of Heaven. The sun turns black and falls,
lightning cracks Bifrost the Rainbow Bridge of three hues,
while time comes to an end.
The wolf Fenrir breaks his chain, Yggdrasil, is laid waste and the
Universe comes crashing down. But after defeat, One will come
beyond the reach of all Evil, greater even than Odin, to create a
new Heaven and Earth set in a Golden Age forevermore."

Don't cry for mercy for you know there will be none
There in your darkness, you've been blinded by the sun
And you'll see me tread the air, crown of fire upon my hair,
you will die
Come forth arise, your time has come, forge the prize

Don't cry for mercy `cause you know there will be none
There in your darkness, you've been blinded by the sun
Crowned in blood I tread the air, worlds are formed within my stare
See them RISE !!!

You're the deliverer-King Unchained
You're the deliverer-King Unchained

You're the deliverer-He Who Reigns !!!

6. Transfiguration

Rain falls, a lost voice calls, the day dies alone
Red blood slowly dripped down, stopped, sighed,
fell to the fround
Mixed with earth and became mud black blood
Rain from Heaven fills the seas of Hell

Cold rain runs from the sky
Blood is the secret, the bond between lives
Cold reign drowning the world, till the word was made flesh
Lips red, to alter led, with heart light, eyes bright
Now heart dead, eyes closed to bier led, lips white
Mixed with earth and became mud black blood
Rest in darkness, till we rise again

Cold rain runs from the sky
Death is a secret a fate between lives
Cold reign, timeless it falls, till the world is made whole

fallin' fallin' over me drowning in the cold rain

7. Prometheus The Fallen One

I have dwelt in Heavens shining realms of bliss
I have walked the Halls of light
Once I lived in honor with the Deathless Gods,
Keeper of a secret sight

Now I suffer the Wrath, I suffer the Pain for befriending Man
Proud Rebel Thief, Stealer of Fire, I never kneel

I have chosen, I bleed for Mankind
Watch me die, I am the God in Man

I defied the Father, on his throne of gold
Now I'm captured here in chains
And he sends his eagle down to feast again
On the banquet of my flesh

Zeus, Rain down your plagues, your unnatural love,
your unnatural hate
Blind may I be but eyeless I see what you'll never know

I am golden, my force flies unseen
Blood and pride, I am the God in Man

Ten thousand years or more torment and pain
Chained to this lonely crag, the champion of slaves
And you come bearing gifts to me
Silent as the grave, I receive thee
And what's the Lie there in your eyes no mercy ...
And the day dawns in Agony, in silence I wait for my time
I will never, ever yield to you, you have no power over me ...
Release me oh release me

A river of ice a mountain of fire, I'll not reveal the one
Impaled in the sky forever despised, I'll not reveal the one
Immortal I die Immortal I die, I'll not give up on Man
Your son will survive to vanquish your tribe, I RISE!!!

I am Golden, my blood heals your wounds
Watch me die, Ifear no Gods Wrath
Cursed and tried, I am the MAN in GOD

8. Emalaith

This is the land of my beginning,
these are the mountains of my birth
Dark with the blood of desecration,
oh where is she who is my pride
EMELAITH

I hear the Weeping of the Spirits,
dark wings of hated fill the world
I know she's waiting out there somewhere,
beyond the shadows of my eyes
EMALAITH

Is there a Life Among these Ruins,
the charred remains of all my kind
Stung by the Sword of Retribution,
I swear an oath where they have died
I will return to wreak my Vengeance,
let Heaven grant what love does seek
Alive without a breath, reach for the Thorns ofDeath,
a shadow falls
Before my eyes

EMALAITH dies alone in the night,
lost like a child she leaves me
Scars on the wind to hold me inside,
tomorrow belongs to never
I'll tear the walls of Erebus down.

Child of the Desolation, cry to me under stars that have died,
Under skies of Pain we are born.
Ooh yeah, we are one, forever we'll be
Oh my love, we'll defy Death and meet on Holy Ground.

After the darkest treason I, I will arise again !!!

EMALAITH dies alone in the night,
a kiss on the wind she leaves me
Out in the fields where everything dies,
will we be lost forever?
From death and darkness love was born, and love survived
and created Light.

Behold the Kingdom of the Fearless,
who holds the Seven Points ofNight?
Where is the hope of absolution,
beyond the shadow of my sight?
I hear the Weeping of the Spirits,
dark wings of hatred rule the world
But I will rise again, pierced by the Thorns of Death,
beyond the shadow of their eyes.

EMALAITH'S mine, asoul infinite,
the promise of peace is never
The Secret of Death if ours to possess, ours will endure forever
I see the answer burn in your eyes, across the wasteland,
Death into Life
The mighty Spirits crystalize, TheCrown of Glory,
onward we ride !!!

Beyond the shadows of the skies, waiting for the light, It's
over all is gone, Shadows of Mourning ...

9. Strawgirl

Eyes blindly starting skyward, gaze fixed on Eternity
What's that mark upon your shoulder, what's that scar on
your arm?
Did you come to see Jesus, do you walk with God?
Do you rest suspended, or tread the Underworld?

I will speak, for you can't, I will tell your story well
I'll reveal your yesterdays
STRAWGIRL lost in the Savage Garden,
Waiting somewhere for someone to call
STRAWGIRL is there a lover who's searching,
crying, no one to notice
you're gone ...

Cold stone supportws your Beauty, night falls anonymous
Shattered light defies the distance, illuminates your loneliness
Did you bear children, do they miss their ma?
Did the blind mask of forgiveness show a truer face by far?
I will speak, for you can't, I will tell your story well
I'll reveal your yesterdays

STRAWGIRL lost in the Savage Garden,
Waiting somewhere for someone to call
STRAWGIRL is there a lover who's searching,
crying somewhere
or is it just me ...

10. Devil/Angel

Rising up from the bottom of the Sea,
Cryptic eyes watching me
Daughter of the Air, Demon of the Pit,
doesn't matter what you are
Riding on that road, you know it won't be long,
Gypsy child you're mine
One foot in the grave, one hand on the wheel,
Beauty calls freedom moans

Oh your pleasure is caught by the sun
Yeah the Five Senses wed
Reason is lost be quick or your dead

DEVIL/ANGEL you move like a shark on the land
DEVIL/ANGEL the Spirityearns for Sensuality

Twin hearts glow, born of rival heat,
Beauty is the only goal
The flesh becomes the soul, eternal argument,
consummate in Nature's Style
Riding on that road, you know I'm runnin' free,
Gypsy child you're mine
Hangin' on the Cross, caught between two thieves,
Energy is Liberty !!!
Oh remember your forgotten son
Yeah celestial calm
Infernal hate, your wit will disarm

DEVIL/ANGEL you ride with the Ravens of Dawn
DEVIL/ANGEL Virtue acts from impulse not from fules

DEVIL/ANGEL we're free from Tyrannical Law
DEVIL/ANGEL the lightning is all that you need

DEVIL/ANGEL, DEVIL/ANGEL, DEVIL/ANGEL oh oh

11. Unholy Water

Flowers of Evil shiver on the firing line
Whose face can please me now?
Boundless Queen of Babylon, she rides above the sky,
I'm a Devil, I'm an Angel

The lights are getting brighter now,
Bold enough to stay your prayers

UNHOLY WATER you tell me the truth,
you tell me the lies
UNHOLY WATER you resurrect you crucify,
take me down now

Leave if you're leavin', stay if you have the right
I've never been so alonw, as I am with you tonight
The Funeral Season grows I'm an Angel, I'm a Devil
Where did it go so wrong?
Close your eyes and say good-bye

UNHOLY WATER you'rebringing me down, to Live is to Die
UNHOLY WATER the ending is clean, the ending is now
UNHOLY WATER the Rapture is mine, I drown in your slime
UNHOLY WATER you're deep in it now, you're tasting it all

UNHOLY WATER
UNHOLY WATER one last careless, then solitude
UNHOLY WATER you're feelin' it now, I never denied
UNHOLY WATER whenn love turns to hate with Satan you mate
UNHOLY WATER drown in the tears, a Shadow of Fear,
The ending, the ending is now

UNHOLY WATER her breasts were full, her hair was wet
UNHOLY WATER around her throat the Serpent crept
UNHOLY WATER she utters truth, she utters lies
UNHOLY WATER she resurrects she crucifies

12. Victory Is Mine

Your God isn't here - She is dead
Crushed by your Prophets of Dread
Death-Fire, Mist, Blood and Wine
Torn like a rose from the vine
So you run to the hills to divine
What is left of your frotune and find

VICTORY IS MINE underneath a Savage sky
VICTORY IS MINE from the darkness I have won, oh

Sad Ghosts of old victories
Come crowding the fields where we cleaved
Locked in Immortal embrace
Handsome as Death's Iron face

I will run to the hills where you hide
Seeking Vengeance for all of my kind

VICTORY IN MINE by the Hammer and the Nine
VICTORY IN MINE from the Mountains to the Sea
VICTORY IN MINE Noble tears and Kingly Pride
VICTORY IN MINE under Shadows I will fly

The Thunder meets at Twilight by the Serpentine
No blood running in these veins
Just the blackened ice of the river Styx
Swirling through a Heart of Stone

VICTORY IS MINE underneath a Savage sky
VICTORY IS MINE by the Power and the Sign
VICTORY IS MINE final Darkness, Kingdoms fall
VICTORY IS MINE under Darkness, Iam all

Oh Emalaith, oh Emalaith,
Sworn by the light of the moon
I will be here with you soon

VICTORY IS MINE
