about

Wreathed in flame, hence he comes.

lyrics

What WERE WE THINKING?
We MARCHED INTO HELL, heads held high.

Would WE HAVE ENTERED,
And FACED DOWN THE dark, if we’d KNOWN THE PRICE?

BETWEEN US WE’D MASTERED
The ASPECTS OF shadow and light.

HOW COULD WE KNOW then what
WE’D BE ASKED to sacrifice?

Now sing
Ah…DOMUS DAEMONORIUM
HOLD YOUR GROUND…hence they come.
The FALL of man HAS BEGUN.
Ah…DOMUS DAEMONORIUM

He OFFERED US pleasures,
He OFFERED US ALL that we prized.
We needn't SURRENDER,
He SAID, ALL HE wanted was COMPROMISE.
Go BACK TO OUR FAMILIES
In HOMES UNDER blue summer skies.
THE HORN’ED GOD spread wide
His ARMS AND SAID close now your eyes.

He said
Ah…DOMUS DAEMONORIUM
TASTE MY FOUL…corruption.
HEAR my lies…JUST SUCCUMB.
Ah…DOMUS DAEMONORIUM

It took JUST ONE MOMENT
Of DOUBT TO INVITE his decay.
It took JUST ONE CURIOUS THOUGHT TO LEAVE OUR souls FOREVER STAINED.
NEVER AGAIN could
We STAND IN THE warm light of DAY.
HIS VILE INFECTION took 
root AND HELD US in his sway.

The PaLADIN HELD up
One GAUNTLET AND gave us a sign.
His POISONED SOUL offered
The DARKNESS no purchase to CLAIM HIS MIND.
With BONE-JARRING FORCE he
Slammed INTO THE HORNED God’s side.
INTO THE VOID the Two FELL THEN, TO darkness consigned.

So sing
Ah…DOMUS DAEMONORIUM
WREATHED IN FLAME…hence he comes.
HELL’S New Dark SERAPHIM.
Ah…DOMUS DAEMONORIUM

Oh oh oh
