Lyrics - Descending Messiah by Antichrisis

Down in the valley on a midwinter's nightwalks
The
Crone, unseen my human kind
Her weary heart longing for rest
Her eyes saw too much of sorrow and grief
There was a time when
She was adoredand the valley full of bliss and joyuntil the day the gaunt one appeared
He never smiled nor shed any tear!
And he raised his voice: "
Behold
I'm
Messiah!"
It was then
She knew the time had come!
A dream?
A dream?
It's only a dream!
A dream?
A dream?
She lives in my dreams
The man, he spoke of commandments and sinof wicked wifes, of chaste and virtious men
He'd sown the seed of mischief in their hearts:
Those once proud, now a submissive crowd!
And he raise his voice: "
Behold
I'm
Messiah!
I'm the son of god!
I come in fire!
My kingdom come!
My will be done!"
It was then
She knew her time had come!
A dream?
A dream?
It's only a dream!
A dream?
A dream?
She lives in my dreams ...
Now the blind are leading the blind!
Independence and wisdom exchanged for ignorance and minority
Seizure and oppression amongst the once born free!
But still no one daredto raise a hand against
The
Crone
They were aware - despite his sermons - that
She still held
The
Strength and
The
Power!
And as
She makes her way through centuries and decades
She waits for human kind to awaketo shake off the chains of
Messiah!
In patience
She walks the world in search for those who upholdthe memeto of the
Golden
Age!
While in his church, in fitful slepe, tormented by nightmareslies
Messiah in fright of the dark!
The demons he raised to strike the blind with fearwere not just a mirage:
They've become alive - to haunt
Messiah!
To end creation's devastation, the senseless sacrifice
She,
The
Weaver, weaves
The
Veil of
Damnation!
And out of the dark,
Valkyries and
Erinyes rising
Avenging
Angels of doom!
Called by
The
Crone the wandering ones seek for vengeance
Awaiting the
Last
Stand!
The
Earth awakes in fire, thunderstorm and lightning
Night calls into being decline!
And up in the skies:
The
Crone in the midst of silence
Armagideon has now begun!
And out of his dreams
Messiah pleas:"
Goddess, have mercy upon me!!!""
Misguided prophet see
My
Scythe descending over you!!!"
Down in the valley neath the river of timesits
The
Crone remembering human kind
Now winter's gone and springtime has come
And all the ashes are washed away...
And he raise his voice: "
Behold
I'm
Messiah!
I'm the son of god!
I come in fire!
My kingdom come!
My will be done!"
It was then
She knew her time had come!
A dream?
A dream?
It's only a dream!
A dream?
A dream?
She lives in my dreams ...
