Coils Of The Serpent Lyrics - Virgin Steele

[The Serpent to Himself:] 

"Anger, fury and hatred boil within me. 

Woe to see them enjoy this Paradise, while I'm resigned to hell!! 

My cunning will prevail and doubt shall be their undoing!" 

[The Serpent to Eve:] 

"What reason, what fear provokes this ban? 

Knowledge forbidden? 

Why envy you this? 

Is it a sin to know, can it be death to taste? 

Is ignorance your creator's wish for you, 

or is blind obedience a proof of your faith?!... 

Take from the tree this golden fruit, be one with the gods! 

I tell you this freely with love in my heart. 

Come your beauty has earned this..."
