Come with me now into the depths of hell Walk with me now to where the angel fell Cross the rivers death, pain and fear And abandon all hope, ye who enter here
Down in the dark he awaits Charon, and he will take us through the gates Of hell on his boat to the shore Of the night and the nevermore
Down now Walk with us now Dream with us now And then sleep now In silence
Dante: I see them wander They are those without faith As spiritless hollows, and bodiless wraiths Here see them hurled, the restless and wild Those wanton hearts Whom their lust hath beguiled
Choir: Cerberus! Virgil: In the shadows lies here Choir: Watching us! Virgil: As the gluttonous are writhing in the pits Here with the dark spawn of the world
Choir: Hunger burn! Virgil: In the greedy who will Never learn to be satisfied with what they've earned Dante: And smolder in the fires Till the debts are all returned
Dante: Madness arise in the circle of lies Bow to the fallen, the lord of the flies
In the circles of the nine Where the sun in silence lies tonight Where the darkest spirits shine In eternal ice their lord resides In the circles of the nine What was hidden now shall come to light Where the damned appear divine And the silent sun will weep for you tonight It has begun, The Silent Sun
Virgil: Crossing Styx' waters When at last you shall see Those drowned in their anger, an infernal decree Dante: Those who have fallen in dark heresy Are buried in fire, and they cry out to me
Choir: Minotaur! Dante: With violence fallen Choir: Burn them out! Dante: And turn them into cinders and then raise Their brazen ashes to the skies
Choir: Let them grow! Virgil: In the muddy waters Down below with the price They must pay for their lies Dante: As trees that never die Along the shores of silent cries
Virgil: Madness arise in the circle of lies Bow to the fallen, the lord of the flies
In the circles of the nine Where the sun in silence lies tonight Where the darkest spirits shine In eternal ice their lord resides In the circles of the nine What was hidden now shall come to light Where the damned appear divine And the silent sun will weep for you tonight Here we are one, The Silent Sun
Caina! Antenora! Caina! And Juddeca! Caina! Ptolomea! Drowning in the river
Caina! Antenora! Caina! And Juddeca! Caina! Ptolomea! Drowning here forever
Dante: in the dark heart of hell In a lake of frozen fire Virgil: Here resides the one, the lord of hell's desire Dante: The fallen angel cries, eternal pain incarnate Virgil: The failure of mankind With eyes of steel and garnet
Virgil: Here we pay the price For all our heart's desire Dante: Hear the lord of lies His wings are beating higher
Both: The centre of the world We wander on despairing On the other side unfurled Comes the Silent Sun on glaring
In the circles of the nine Where the sun in silence lies tonight Where the darkest spirits shine In eternal ice their lord resides In the circles of the nine What was hidden now shall come to light Where the damned appear divine And the silent sun Won't weep for you tonight It shall be done, The Silent Sun
