Rhapsody of Fire - Vanquished by Shadows Lyrics

Resurrected, body corrupted
By the darkest hexes, the rigors of time
Lying evils seeped in the conscience
Become gangrenous and rotten inside

Dream, if you can... When you can no longer
Sleep, if you can... When there's nothing left to
Dream, if you can... When you can no longer
Sleep, if you can... When there's nothing left to dream!

He shall raise the darkness from the depth

Bleeding wounds in the fabric of spacetime
Make the corpses dance in the dead of the night
Dust and bones are furiously whirling
While the graves are lit in the magical rite

Hide if you can... When you can no longer
Breathe if you can... When there's nothing left to
Hide if you can... When you can no longer
Breathe if you can... When there's nothing left to hide!

He shall hide the shameful weight of life

Vanquished by shadows, tortured in the blame (Blame)
Unnameable Pariah, forged in blood and pain (Pain)
Doomed by his mother, bound to be concealed (Doom)
Eternal life in agony, he was born to die unseen (Die)
As opposed to Kreel

Growing shadows slaying the sunlight
Make the graveyard crawling, everything's lost
Restless souls and hideous cries
The lamenting horde of unpeaceful ghosts

Sleep if you can... When there's nothing left to
Dream if you can... When you can no longer
Sleep if you can... When there's nothing left to
Dream if you can... When you can no longer dream!

He shall cry his innocence is lost

Vanquished by shadows, tortured in the blame (Blame)
Unnameable Pariah, forged in blood and pain (Pain)
Doomed by his mother, bound to be concealed (Doom)
Eternal life in agony, he was born to die unseen (Die)
As opposed to Kreel

Sleep... Dream... Sleep... Dream softly
I... Dread... to think... we're the same...
I... Realize... the beast could've been me
For... she chose... it must be you
The... Pariah... Divine nemesis

And we sing the rime of the unfortunate
As we know the legend goes on
Sing along the rime of the miserable
As we know we have tried for so long

Sleep... Dream... Sleep... Dream softly
Why... God?... You mean... It must be me
The... Pariah... The vile heresy

And we sing the rime of the unfortunate
As we know the legend goes on
Sing along the rime of the miserable
As we know we have tried for so long

Cry out in vain, shame on thy curse
Mastered by the dark, black wizard with no soul
Lost is your name, rotten to the core
Kreel has your own blood, you mighty Bezrael

And we sing the rime of the unfortunate
As we know the legend goes on
Sing along the rime of the miserable
As we know we have tried for so long

Cry out in vain, shame on thy curse
Devastated youth, black wizard ruined thy soul
Your body's turned, your eyes on fire
Still you share his blood, you mighty Bezrael

He shall kill, destroy the peaceful green hills
He shall fight in charge of the empire

Vanquished by shadows, tortured in the blame (Blame)
Unnameable Pariah, forged in blood and pain (Pain)
Doomed by his mother, bound to be concealed (Doom)
Eternal life in agony, he was born to die unseen (Die)
As opposed to Kreel

Swear the despicable oath, you fool
