Viewing Lyrics for A Cautionary Tale:
| | | Artist: | Sabbat |
| | Album: | History Of A Time To Come | | Track: | A Cautionary Tale | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 93 | | | | Lyrics: | Faustus begin thine incantations,
take good care to draw thy circle true,
by God must you
prevail -
for if you fail these
demons make a meal of you.
Your soul shall be
their meat -
a kingly feast for them to eat,
beware your future at hand,
alas for
thou art dammed.
GOOD ANGEL:
"Faustus seek repentance,
]abjure this evil
art,
cease this wretched wickedness
and cleans thy foolish heart,
for the evil that
once served you
has made of you a slave,
and transformed your bed of roses'
to a
premature grave."
Then in a mighty flash of light
before thee Mephistopheles
appears.
FAUSTUS:
"I charge thee go and change thy shape,
for you fill my soul
with fear.
Now swift-as-hell back to the fire
return an old Franciscan
Friar."
MEPHISTOPHELES:
"Mortal command me while you can,
For surely thou art
dammed."
BAD ANGEL:
"Faustus be thou resolute
in what thou wilst
perform,
ignore these righteous idiots -
their trinity to scorn,
for years of
depravation you receive eternal life,
but fame and wealth and maidens-fair
are by far the
better price."
FAUSTUS:
"Temptations all around me,
is there nowhere I can
turn?
Hellfire is all about me,
now I know that I shall burn,
I face excommunication
for the error
of my ways -
to burn in Hell for all my days.
Bell, book and
candle,
candle, book, bell,
forwards and backwards
to damn me to
Hell.
Jehova I beg thee have mercy on my soul.
Be gone foul beast that stands before
me,
my God! The midnight hour chimes,
oh Lord have mercy he comes for me,
I haven't
got much time.
I am awake this is no dream,
I cry - but terror takes my scream,
and
now my future is at hand,
also for I am dammed."
GOOD ANGEL:
"Think for just
one moment
and I'm sure that you will see,
the moral of this story -
that what shall
be must be.
He who gives his soul to Hell,
must dare to pay the price,
he versed in
divinity must
live a noble life -
OR ELSE HE IS DAMNED | | | |
