the divine wings of tragedy

Singer:symphony x

on the edge of paradise

tears of woe fall

cold as ice

hear my cry

renounce

have you

thy name

eternal is my pain

eternal is the pain that leads me

to the thrones of temptation

eternal is the pain that leads me

to the thrones of temptation. there was a time. when nine choirs sang the

endless melody of light

music of the spheres

there was a place. where mortals embraced thunder

and majesty

their fate lay in our hands

feel my wings slowly fading -

forever lost in time - i cry

the burning conflict i'm feeling

it summons me to descend into

the other side

and just beyond the stars blazing

a beam light from a red

velvet

moon illuminates me

i will devise

from perfect skies

a dark and vengeful day

faith and mercy gone astray

with strength of infinite measure

the mighty sword divides order

from chaos in the kingdom below

and from the mansions of glory

this empty soul cries out one

final plea. the end has begun

our worlds collide

now in

disguise

you'll feel the wrath divine

tears of woe fall from the sky. the prophet cries

vast battalions rage on in the sky

rising from the north

- the bringer of war

eve of destruction

summon all who have 'power

over fire'

impending doom from shore to

shore

standing on the edge of paradise

i sacrifice my truth and loyalty

seven deadly sins consume you

all

a dance with death

i taste the victory

rising from the north

- the warrior prince

judgement without compassion

eyes of fear

like the river styx

the gates of hell -

abandon hope all ye who enter here"
