[Music & Lyrics by David DeFeis] [David DeFeis - All Vocals, Keyboards, Bass & Orchestration] [Josh Block - 7 String Guitars & Guitar Solo / Frank Gilchriest - Drums] Come to me like Water Come to me from the depths of the Moonlight Come to me my Daughter Lay with me like the White Rose of Summer Come child, love child Night drowns in your arms... Fire, Communion the Serpent Divine These are the bonds of Glory... The Eye of the Mystic Her Flesh is the Wine these are the bonds we share Under the Sea, under the Sky Hell in the boundless Air Magick denied, Love crucified Heaven is seared where Faith resides TO CROWN THEM WITH HALOS - they come and they come TO CROWN THEM WITH FIRE - their Black work is done TO CROWN THEM WITH HALOS - they come and they come TO CROWN THEM WITH FIRE - their Black work is done in the Night Black Superstition a Cauldron of Crime These are the Scars of Glory Savage desires are bound into the Savior's Shroud Cast from the wall ravished by all Death wears a coward's face Torn from your Throne, raped to the bone Heaven is Fear disguised as Life TO CROWN THEM WITH HALOS - they come and they come TO CROWN THEM WITH FIRE - their Black work is done TO CROWN THEM WITH HALOS - they come and they come TO CROWN THEM WITH FIRE - their Black work is done in the Night??? Walk through the fire yearning for all your life Pain never ending, Heaven is breathing Fire Proud Rebel Angel at War with a future Saint Blaze like a Beacon for all of us here in Hell... oh, my Lyzebel... Angel of Fire They're burning your tears alive Where is thy God? Thorns for your marriage bed... Counterfeit Myths, Blood from a Kiss Heaven is Fear disguised as Life They Thunder the Music of Hatred they worship the Song of the Nails They delight in the sound of disaster, the blood, the lies and the wails... Their passage has no true fixed center all their horizons default to a line Their God is incensed, his anger unquenched His cruelty is truly Divine... Come to me like Water Come to me with the death of the Moonlight Come to me my Daughter Lay with me in the ashes of summer Run child, blood child, with shrouds for your charms... TO CROWN THEM WITH HALOS - they come and they come TO CROWN THEM WITH FIRE - their Black work is done TO CROWN THEM WITH HALOS - they come and they come TO CROWN THEM WITH FIRE - their Black work is done in the Night
