Dark Are The Veils Of Death

Death is present the candle has burned out The scythe is raised he's eager to reap The extreme unction prepares for the last flight But God knows where you will rest Dark are the veils of death [Chorus] To sail the seas of eternal damnation To cross the desert of woe and despair Or drink the chalice of divine ambrosia Your life will be put to the test Dark are the veils of death Enter the great adventure Just wait and see Heaven or hell will call you Now when your spirit is free [Chorus] Where can your salvation be Now when your spirit is free Where can your salvation be Now when your spirit is free Fading light Disappearing light Tells you darkness is to come Ancient rites The death-mass itself Has never revealed where you will go You will enter realms where angels fear to tread Open hidden doors within your mind Sail with Charon sail into destiny Accept your death and make it to your own choice [Repeat 4th Verse] [Repeat 1st Verse] [Repeat 3rd Verse] [Chorus] --- Dark Are the Veils of Death - Candlemass
