Sacrilege - In Winter Enticed Lyrics

[Music: Bergholtz, Dinsdale, Svensson]

[Lyrics: Dinsdale, Svensson]



She arrived in the coldest of winters,

to a slumbering world so white

Naked she came and with eyes so blue,

a monument of beauty she was



The white covered world was peaceful

and she arrived like the mist before dawn

A dreamlike shadeless goddess raised by the frost in the north



But behind her mask of glimmering goodness

a wicked smile appeared

A symbol of darkness in disguise

sent to haunt the light



She grabbed her sword and rode out in the night

to entice all the living and ravish their lives

Her voice was filled with tenderness

as it echoed throughout the land



Her concupiscence was strong

and lured creatures to their graves

Her heart was made of stone

she was starving for the dead



When day had passes and turned into night

she captured god's angels and fed on their fright

The land she had conquered laid empty and cold

Exhausted with grief their souls were sold



She ripped her mask of glimmering goodness

to unveil her blackened soul

A symbol of darkness in disgust

sent to crush the light



She grabbed her sword and rode out in the night

to entice all the living and ravish their lives

Her voice was filled with tenderness

as it echoed throughout the land



Her concupiscence was strong...



What peace for me in a star or moon

What solace in nightingale

They tell me of the lost and gone

and dawn completes the tale
