Dark Are the Veils of Death Songtext
von Candlemass

Yeah

Death is present the candles burned out
The scythe is raised, he′s eager to reap
The extreme unction prepares for the last flight
God knows where you will rest
Dark are the veils of death, oh yeah

To sail the seas of eternal damnation
To cross the desert of woe and despair
Or drink the chalice of final ambrosia
Your life will be put to the test
Dark are the veils of death


Enter the great adventure
Just wait and see
Heaven or hell will call you
Now that your spirit is free

What can your salvation be
Now that your spirit is free?
What can your salvation be
Now that your spirit is free?

Fading light, disappearing light
Tells you darkness is to come
Ancient rites, the death-mass itself
Has never revealed where you will go

You will enter realms where angels fear to tread
Open hidden doors within your mind
Sail with Charon, sail into destiny
Accept your death and make it to your own choice

Yeah
