Lyrics The Great Seducer - Blaze of Perdition

The Great Seducer

I am the Sun and I am the Moon
Constellation of thoughts
Fiery stars in the night
I am…
Reflection in the water surface
Your face in the pool of blood
I carry my Blaze towards Perdition
Overwhelmed by the weight of materia
Crawling like a worm, abused and disgraced
Devoid of dignity, banished from Heavens
I carry my flame towards damnation
It is my cross, my crown of thorns
Through the treadmill of existence
Comes the last spark of hope
Who am I?
The Son of God?
Who am I?
Friend or foe?
Who am I?
Saviour to some
Who am I?
Bane to others
Infinity concealed in a crippled flesh
Illusion of grace — wolf in sheep’s clothing
My faces are many and so are the stars
Beside you at your birth I was
Beside you at your death I shall be
I was there in Gethsemane
I was there in the Garden of Eden
Where I offered you life
So you could understand death
Water flows as fire reigns
Night and day, so many my names
I have no beginning, I have no end
The Serpent — the Lamb
The first and the last Man on Earth
Pull off the armor of God
And put on the one of the scales
You belong to your father — the Snake
And lie is his name
But in lie you shall find
The answers you seek
For when the truth is none
Only lie will set you free
Now I am fallen from the sky
Forgotten son
Now I am cut down to the ground
I who freed your minds
For I have said in my heart:
I will ascend into heaven
I will exalt my throne
Above the world of men
I will bury my heart
In the Garden of Eden
Beneath the broken tree
That set you free
The great seducer
The passion ablaze
Prime mover of doubt and faith
Let us pray
The cruel lover
Ecstasy and pain
Give us affection, give us disdain
We pray
