Serpent came to Eve from Tiamat
Immortality was known to man
Oh, how dark we pray
Oh, how dark we pray
Oh, how dark we pray
Oh, how dark we pray
Spirit assassin dressed in black before your shrine
A woman's coffin sending shivers up my spine
Nailed are hands upon the cross so intertwined
A saintly mother sacrificed before your hive
They drink the life
They eat of flesh
Oh, how dark we pray
Oh, how dark we pray
Oh, how dark we pray
Oh, how dark we pray
The brain washed ghost of thought endless lies have come to bind
Four thousand years of mystery surrounding the signs
The children scream aloud when pain and guilt align
The failing mass of contradiction in their finds
They drink the life
They eat of flesh
Oh, how dark we pray
Oh, how dark we pray
Oh, how dark we pray
Oh, how dark we pray
[Solo]
Shadows on the day of Philistia
All will have to seek of Visigoth
The serpent came to Eve with a message from Tiamat
Death and immortality was known to man
Three had become four and five
Lilith had taken to conception
And was cursed to unearth where demons and man did not dwell together
Oh, how dark we pray
Oh, how dark we pray
Oh, how dark we pray
Oh, how dark we pray
