The third single released from Winterforge's 2024 upcoming album Hiemal

Lyrics:

We see thy life of sin
Thou fall away from holy Lord
All thy thoughts, we hear
All thy words, they stink

We punish and we kill
Condemn who wants to touch the sun
Through Devil’s eyes, thou seek
The Devil’s lies, thou drink

For, behold, the darkness
Covers the earth
Abomination
Like fire and brimstone, thou smell

Through the darkest night
We carry the light of faith to thee
The Devil’s lies
We won’t let them in

Through the fog, through the storm
We all are dancers in the dark
Through the pain, through the cold
Humanity untold

Fear among the sinners
The punishment, we are
Don’t let the Enlightenment
Lead us from the dark

Don’t let the Enlightenment
Lead us from the dark

The punishment, we are
The judgement made of lies

Quia ecce tenebræ operient terram
Et caligo populos
Super te autem orietur Dominus
Et gloria ejus in te videbitur

In the name of God
We carry the punishment to thee
The Devil’s lies
Are everything we hear

Through the fog, through the storm
We all are dancers in the dark
Through the pain, through the cold
Humanity untold

Fear among the sinners
The punishment, we are
Don’t let the Enlightenment
Lead us from the dark

Don’t let the Enlightenment
Lead us from the dark

The punishment, we are
The judgement made of lies

Quia ecce tenebræ operient terram
Et caligo populos
Super te autem orietur Dominus
Et gloria ejus in te videbitur

For, behold, the darkness
Covers the earth
Abomination
Like fire and brimstone, thou smell

The truth was like a cold water
It has been creeping in the shades
Now, when I’m awaken
I whip myself with shame

Enlightened on the desert
I slowly start to drown in fear
I can see the madness
Won’t disappear

Madness spreads
Now I can see
It won’t disappear

I whip myself
I drown in fear

Enlightened
I whip myself
I fear

Enlightened
I whip myself
I drown in fear
