I slay my wings and change into serpent skin Reform my flesh and hide my face from the sun The black flames inside devour everything I rise from within and claim dominion Through the 9 gates, through the pits of mind Burn the fields of your old life Peel off pity and remorse Heart of chaos brings tranquillity As it starts to burn The power within thee Brings forth thy hidden face You will be crushed As I claim the throne in your temple Angels are gone, your palaces burn You enjoy the rush Your mind goes blank and you throw yourself Into the vortex of decadence As it starts to burn The power within thee Brings forth thy hidden face I call forth the shadow which I am And always have been Walk through the fire eternal The flames no longer burn your flesh I slay my wings and change into serpent skin Reform my flesh and hide my face from the sun The black flames inside devour everything I rise from within and claim dominion Through the 9 gates, through the pits of mind Burn the fields of your old life Walk through the fire eternal The flames no longer burn your flesh You become one of them From the heart of chaos you'll find tranquillity
