lyrics

Dark is the night of the dead
Lifted away from the skies
Facing the truth of the emperor
Death to those of the light
The people that you can't unleash
Condemned to worship the holy cross
Life is ending so fast
Darkness has showed up its signs
Waiting for death is all that remains

Dark is the night of the dead
Lifted away from the skies
Facing the truth of the emperor
Life is ending so fast
Darkness has showed up its signs
Waiting for death is all that remains

Slaving for the signs of a god
With your fate you will pay
Every mark in the sky
Showing you, you will die

As the sky turns black, you wonder why?
The reason is this, you cannot try
Creations of death, creations of life
Your kingdom is here, your kingdom is gone

Where the winds of darkness blow
Thats where I lost my soul
Where the winds of darkness blow

Where the winds of darkness blow
Thats where I lost my soul
Where the winds of darkness blow

Slaving for the signs of a god
With your fate you will pay
Every mark in the sky
Showing you, you will die

Where the winds of darkness blow
