Of the Wand and the Moon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lucifer walk with me
Lucifer inflame this heart
Lucifer embrace this soul
For I am fallen just like you

I gave in
To lifes bitter promises
Yes I gave in
But not again

Lucifer embrace my soul
I´ve lost everything - all I love
Lucifer we share the dark
We are brothers you and I

I gave in
To lifes bitter promises
Yes I gave in
But not again

Lucifer share this wine
Bitter and black like my love
Lucifer share my wine
One last toast before I go

I gave in
To lifes bitter promises




Yes I gave in
But not again
