I require The solace of the shadows So the night can be ...Redeemed As the winds of darkness Whispers my name A kiss of death I receive Nocturnal enchanter To thy art I yield Within the candlelight A rapture is sealed I set the stones For invoking ceremonies In the twilight zones... arise Abstract galaxies The magic eye... unveils The blackened skies A new horizon... begins To each one that dies (...) The desolation makes me feel! (...) So dark So cold The silence So dark So cold The emptiness Solace Of the shadows Solace Of the shadows Solace Solace Of the shadows Night surrounds!! And embraces me! (...) Darkness Holds the secrets of man's fears It captures my heart As the purgatory sears I cast now the spell As I cross through raging flames Into darkness Cursing names (...) (Ha., ha..., ha... ha... ha, ha, ha, haaaa) (Ha., ha..., ha... ha... ha, ha, ha, haaaa) I require The solace of the shadows So the night can be Redeemed As the winds of darkness Whispers my name A kiss of death I receive Nocturnal enchanter To thy art I yield Within the candlelight A rapture is now revealed
