Lyrics - Part Ii: Lilith's Embrace by Ancient

Caine:"
Alone in the darkness
I can hear the sweetest voicewhispering words of surcease and
I rejoiced!
Who would dare speak to one so condemned as
I?
Do you know of my most wicked crime?"
Lilith:"
I'm known as
Lilith, your fahter's first bride
Like you
I'm cursed to dwell in the shadows of night."
Caine:"
How can one survive here in the dark groves forlorn?
Without a sole companion or a friend of some form?"
Lilith:"
But there are many companions in my infinite kingdom.
Through magick and sorcery
I've found my freedom."
Caine:"
I was cold and she clothed me,
I starved and she fed me,
I was mournful yet she loved me.
I shed bloody tears and she made themdisappear she kissed away my fears.
Her powers
I could see would foreverset me free
I begged her to awake me.
Her blood, sweet as wine, as
I drankshe would sigh then
I closed my eyes.
Into the dark
I fell and fell a deepest abysssurrounded by obscurity a price for her gift.
Out from the frigid blackness came a radiant glimmering lightrevealing the flaming archangel known as
Michael"
Micheal:"
Cursed son of
Adam, indeed
His mercy is greatbow thy head and repent thine sins now before it's too late."
Caine:"
Not by
His grace but my own,
I choose to live with prideyour "merciful"
God disgusts mehis
Kingdom infested with lies."
Micheal:"
You sad irreverent fool have thee no shame?
Tou shall forever fear the light of the
Living
Flame."
Caine:"
On the morning by silver wing
Raphael came to me and said
Abel did firgive me not by his (forgiveness) but mine ownfor darkness is my home.
I walk alone, my skin would burn by the sun's rays
I learnedand the dawn had returned to earth below
I did run seeking shelter from the sunthe endless night of
Caine had begun.
When
I awoke,
Uriel appearedthe reaper with black wingsbut thrice denied his gracehence, my blood-curse begins & hellip."
