How do angels fall? Almighty Gods once looked upon our Land Where Evil itself its ruinous wings spread Rendering air and water and soil stained Weak and helpless souls driving into dread They wept seeing what Their blindness caused Their eyes drizzled the Earth with tears Humans by healing rain awoken reposed Into fair Angels converted devoid of fears The rise of the Divine Ones shook the Earth All stood united to end the reign of terror Many perished to give their Land new birth Angels fell first to stop the Night Bearer It was true as true is birth and death That Angels fell first by pure sacrifice For Greater Good holding the last breath With grace melting the long-lasting ice ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Then the mighty Gods reposed in unending joy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ But as glaciers seize the Earth sometimes Drawing the heat out of our planet's core Evil souls are born to complete the rhymes For Sun and Moon must both keep their Lore Following the thousand years of fair paradise The new darkness emerged and three sons bore Fear and Hatred and Violence began to rise Trinity of the Damned opened long-closed door Fear was the first to throw off his disguise sowing a seed of enmity among fertile soil Hatred joined shortly and wicked plan devised wrecking tranquility achieved at a great toil Finally Violence who ancient Gods despised For having him cast into blazing tar to boil Awoke hidden demons and ordered them to rise Rendering humans into ruthless war embroiled ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Then the mighty Devils reposed in endless joy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ And so the demons our earthly valley possessed And only few angels in concealment remain Petrified and with fear of daylight obsessed In murky corners their light they constrain Angels fall last Angel's light falls first... ~Tribute for "Angels Fall First" by Nightwish~
