There is a serpent in every Eden
Slick as grease and cold as ice
There is a lie in every meaning
Rest assured to fool you twice
In this age of utter madness
We maintain we are in control
And ending life before deliverance
While countries are both bought and sold
Holy writings hokus-pokus
Blaze of glory and crucifix
Prepried costly credit salvation's
TV-preachers and dirty tricks
Don't trust nobody
It will cost you much too much
Beware of the dagger
It caress you at first touch
O, all small creatures
It is the twilight if the gods
When the foundations to our existence
Begins to crumble one by one
And legislation protects its breakers
And he who was wrong but paid the most won
Even the gods of countless religions
Holds no powers against this tide
Of degeneration because we have now found
That there is no thrones up there in the sky
Run from this fire
It will burn your very soul
Its flames reaching higher
Came this far there is no hold
Oh, all small creatures
It is the twilight if the gods
(Twilight of the gods) [Repeat: x3]
Slick as grease and cold as ice
There is a lie in every meaning
Rest assured to fool you twice
In this age of utter madness
We maintain we are in control
And ending life before deliverance
While countries are both bought and sold
Holy writings hokus-pokus
Blaze of glory and crucifix
Prepried costly credit salvation's
TV-preachers and dirty tricks
Don't trust nobody
It will cost you much too much
Beware of the dagger
It caress you at first touch
O, all small creatures
It is the twilight if the gods
When the foundations to our existence
Begins to crumble one by one
And legislation protects its breakers
And he who was wrong but paid the most won
Even the gods of countless religions
Holds no powers against this tide
Of degeneration because we have now found
That there is no thrones up there in the sky

Its flames reaching higher
Came this far there is no hold

Quorthon never fails to deliver some killer viking metal. this song is not for the fans of his quick,speed-driven black metal bursts (which are also good) this is a 14 minute slow, melodic viking metal epic. but the 14 mintues ends too quickly.
Quorthon sang very well on his old stuff, but i love his clean, melodic singing on this one.
LONG LIVE HEAVY METAL!!!!!
