Altar Flame lyrics

Song information

Artist: Tiamat
Album: Sumerian Cry

Lyrics

A silent secret
Of unfathomed darkness
Uncounted years
Within the temple walls

Lightened up by the moon
It's pale walls cold
Entrance not allowed
Guarded by invisible evil

[Ch.:]
Rising above the trees
High out of the mist
Dead for many years
A temple in the dark
Approaching the temple
From surrounding forests
In a window I saw
An altar flame aglow

In the primal shrine
Moist and dust
Untouched for centuries
Ancient bible scripts

Phosphorescent glow
Reflects in the mould
Flickering radiance
Inside the dead halls

[Ch.]

Echoing inside the church
Unreal chants
Just sheer delusion
Of a sickening mind

Extravagant visions
Chaotic incidents
Dare I enter
My disposable grave?

[Ch.]
