Fallen Angel
Satan's Host Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There was an angel
Who stood above them all
He was a bright and shining star
The gifted one
The ever present
Fallen, Fallen Angel
Fallen one, down trodden one.
Lead us all into temptation
Crowned in glory once above
He stole the only thing
That ever really mattered
Wanted power wanted love
I wanted it all
And now I have you
Unto us all
Sin is born
Through us all
Sin is won
Fallen One, Down Trodden One
You are the master of mankind
Fallen, Fallen Angel
Subtle whisper in our minds

Harry "The Tyrant" Conklin (Jag Panzer, Titan Force) or Leviathan Thisiren, as he's known here is one of the most underrated US vocalist ever.

I got this album two days ago and have listened to this track about 20 times. This is Metal at its best.

One of the best songs on "By the hands of the devil", though rather different from the rest of the tracks on it. Thanks for the upload my friend!
UP THE HAMMERS FESTIVAL

GEORGE MEINTANIS

I thought so as well. From the moment I heard it. I didn't even know Harry Conklin had gone back to Satan's Host after Jag panzer called it quits, and I was completely floored by this CD.
