Trapped in eternal recurrence On this road to perdition where all things belong to dust I raise the flame Praise the fire! Life-devouring god on ruins of the world I praise the blaze! Watch the bleeding sun's rebirth Es muss sein! On this arduous way to burning gehenna Every fall is a step into the wild holiness The temple of the blackest flame Standing in the sea of blood A rite that has no end, a pyre that always burns Embrace the flame Praise the fire! Life-devouring god on ruins of the world I praise the blaze! Watch the glorious time returns Praise the fire! The tree of Sephiroth burns Praise the blaze! A funeral void remains Ours is the glorious nightfall Through aeons it burns under silent stars No force in the world can take the torch from us Lucifer's blessing Embrace the entire brightness Witness the coal-black stardust design Revelation of death that lives in every flesh A witness to the fall of the blind Es muss sein! In the blazing eyes of righteous anger Walk the road to perdition where all men belong to dust Embrace the flame Praise the fire! Life-destroying god on ruins of faith Now praise the blaze! Watch the bleeding sun's rebirth
