The Cold Grip Of Terror lyrics

Artist Crimson Moonlight
Album(s) Veil Of Remembrance

Lyrics

I carry a longing, a yearning stronger than words can tell.
I carry my sword, my emblem of victory
In this chaos I flourish..
I believe. my dream is the loveliest dream
Just the wish to have it fulfilled is enough

I watched my step when I entered the narrow path.
I saw and I understood..
Its goal lies beyond the black fog, beyond the cold grip of terror
To reach the goal I have to walk a long way
Have to tear my flesh on the sharpest thorns
Have to squeeze my staff so my hand gets cramped..

Through weird depths of bloody tranquility
Through darkness, pain and chaos.
Through still, serene silence..
Through the lashings of icy rains..

Suffering...is it a challenge, a divine trumpet?
Day and night I lay there knocked to the ground
Scars and wounds were my constant company..
The taste of cold blood woke me up from my restless sleep
The heat of fire burnt my hands, stiff with cold
When I tried to make them warm

Sackcloth covers my body
And I've had to lower my horn in the dust
My face is flaming red with tears
And death has painted my eyelids shadowy black
And this although my hands are free from violence
And my prayer is pure!

My days are gone, my plans are shattered
Gone what was once my heart's desire
I wish to change night for day
Daylight would be near now when darkness breaks in

No, I know thou will carry me
Thy presence is greater than the darkest agony
Thou, the only one. my fortress
Thou alone are immortal..
Covered in glorious majesty
Thou alone are the lord's anointed
The darkness recedes, 'cause the true light is already shining..
