Illnath - Cast Into Fields Of Evil Pleasure слова песни
At the brink of Hell an island swims in lakes of fire by the darkened plainsDeserted and dead it declares its placeBy spewing it`s magma like blood from its veins and covering the islandIn a black, poisonous hazeThis was the first spot where the angel Lucifer set his footAnd claimed and declared this view as his homeHe came from the north, and alone was he notBut joined by the followers from the roads he had roamedHere he set his haven. Here where angels dieHere he baptise the newcomers in fire. On the Devil`s own Sinai.[Female]"Sinai roars as your frail brittle bones viciously torn, mutilated and scorched.Bleeding lava pulsating like blood, `neath your skin as it withers and burns"Still the damned gather here to hailAmidst burning smoke beneath black skiesHellhounds bark at the northern pale view...This is the common abyss for all alikeWhere the red, melted stone fl ow a scorching riverInto the day in north, and in south... the night.And here (Here you are) on the outstretching fields (On Elysium grounds)Far away (Far away from life). God (God) is out of reachHere they gather to spit and curse and barkFrom the south of heaven where angels are toldNot to approach nor to look nor to set footWhere the truth of Armageddon will unfoldHere they sacrifice the captured saints .Here is where the torture awaitsHere is where you abandon your faith.On the Devil`s own Sinai...They wait and wail in ghastly painWhile digging deep inside, insane.Inflict a wound you heal in vainAs blood pours black from pierced veinsThey crush and cut, the dark stone stainedA ribcage opens, a hole that framesA soul unstained and struggling saneBeneath the burning rain ......cast into the fields of evil pleasure.Discovering the abyss` deepest hidden treasureBending borders of emotional measureCast far into the fields of evil pleasure...[Solo]It`s always been there, and forever it willStay untouched by the tooth of timeStanding with majestic intimidationBat-winged creatures surrounding its peak,High above Hell they all flyForever screaming in demonic celebrationAnd here (Here you are) on the outstretching fields (On Elysium grounds)Cast into the fields (Cast into the fields) of evil pleasureForever (Forever) awaiting only to (die)[Cast into fields of evil pleasure - Comments][If you can imagine a spot in between worlds where one side describes the positive (yin, summer, daytime) and the other describes the opposite. We take the basic elements: Heaven and Hell. Then you imagine that the hordes of Hell have conquered this spot, and that from here they can see Heaven again, but don`t really dare to go any further. This was the borderline, and now they are standing closer than ever, maybe to break loose on Heaven`s green fields, maybe ready to stay on stand-by forever.][I think the idea of the song was just to make the borderland, but then I tended to fill it up with all kinds of nasty figures. ("Here they sacrifice the captured saints, here is where the torture awaits, here is where you abandon faith: The Devil`s own Sinai"). I liked the idea of the Devil`s Own Sinai, and if I was the Devil and wanted to poke God in the ribs by making my own Sinai, where would I build it but the brink of Heaven, just to say: "Yeah? Well look what I`ve got!". But I think my favourite line in this song must be " This is the common abyss for all alike, Where red melted stone flow a scorching river, Into the day in north, and in south; the night." I kind of like that image.][And here, while being poked in your guts, you can still see Heaven shining north of where you lie strapped down. Quite depressing, huh?][- Narrenschiff]
