Apocalypse
Holyhell Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Gates of heaven are opened
A white horse did appear
There's an angel standing in the sun
Fire in his eyes, the angels caroled his command
The keys to hell and death were burning in his hand

(chorus)
Black angels are falling
The gates of hell are calling
Black angels are falling
hell's calling

Black angels are falling
The gates of hell are calling
Black angels are falling
The gates of hell are calling you

The seven seals now opened
The day of wrath has come
Angels bring us fire and blood (in hands)
Stars fall from the heavens;
Mountains fall into the sea
The Beast upon it's throne laughing
Evil is supreme

Day into night
Dark into light
On the crown of light
Four horsemen ride




Black red and white
The heralds of death shall ride
