the ancient serpent lyrics

Ten horns arise, the seven heads
Upon its crowns and diadems...
Its tail swept down unto the earth

The stars of heaven; a third has turned...
Bound to devour the child of light
The dragon stands before her cries of life
And now the serpent's crown shall be bestowed

Unto the beast, unto its throne...
The ancient serpent, the ancient son
The ancient horror, the ancient one
The ancient mystery of all iniquity
Is now complete within it's silent trinity...

Perfect in beauty, knowledge and wisdom

"You were the seal of all perfection
And you defiled your sanctuaries
By the multitude of your iniquities."
"And you were cast unto the ground
The ancient serpent, the ancient son
And it devoured you from within
As it empowered all that is sin."
And I brought fire forth from your midst

The ancient horror, the ancient one
The ancient mystery of all iniquity

Is now complete within it's silent trinity...

The age of grace is over
The age of grace is over
The legacy is fate...
As destiny awakes
