The Cainian Chronicle Part Ii: Lillith's Embrace Lyrics - Ancient

[Caine:] 

'Alone in the darkness I can hear 

The sweetest voice 

Whispering words of surcease 

And I rejoiced! 

Who would dare speak to one so 

Condemned as I? 

Do you know of my most wicked crime?' 

[Lilith:] 

'I'm known as Lilith, your father's first bride 

Like you I'm cursed to dwell in the shadows of night.' 

[Caine:] 

'How can one survive here in the dark groves forlorn? 

Without a sole compainion of a friend of some form?' 

[Lilith:] 

'But there are many compainions in my infinite kingdom. 

Through magick and sorcery I've found my freedom.' 

[Caine:] 

'I was cold and she clothed me, I starved 

And she fed me, I was mournful yet she loved me. 

I shed bloody tears and she made them dissapear 

She kissed away my tears 

Her powers I could see would forever set me free 

I begged her to awake me 

Her blood, sweet as wine, as I drank she would sigh 

Then I closed my eyes 

Into the dark I fell and fell 

A deepest abyss 

Surrounded by obscurity 

A price for her gift 

Out from the frigid blackness 

Came a radiant glimmering light 

Revealing the flaming archangel 

Known as Michael' 

[Michael:] 

'Cursed son of Adam 

Indeed his mercy is great 

Bow thy head and repent thine sins now 

Before it's too late.' 

[Caine:] 

'Not by his grace but my own, 

I choose to live with pride 

Your 'merciful' god disgusts me 

His kingdom infested with lies.' 

[Michael:] 

'You sad irrelevant fool 

Have thy no shame? 

You shall forever fear the light 

Of the living flame.' 

[Caine:] 

'On the mornign by silver wing 

Raphael came to me and said 

Abel did forgive me 

Not by his (forgiveness) but mine own 

For darkness is my home 

I walk alone 

My skin would burn by the sun's rays I learned 

And the dawn had returned to earth below 

I did run seeking shelter from the sun 

The endless night of Caine had begun 

When I awoke, Uriel appeared 

The reaper with black wings 

But thrice denied his grace 

Hence, my blood-curse begins...'
