lyrics

Like a wolf on the fold descends the disease
Breathe in the heaving tides of corrupted seas
Gleaming veiled prophets plead in sickly tone
Rocks strewn in bone break waves of parting groans

For the Angel of Death spread his wings on the blast
And breathed in the face of the foe as he passed
And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill
And their hearts but once heaved, and forever - forever grew still

Like a wolf on the fold
A wolf on the fold
Wolf on the fold

And there lay the tending angels lay broken and pale
Sweat from their brows drips in bloody trails
And these angels of mercy now weep in despair
Powerless to fight a war in the rising infectious air
The time of rebirth has crushed the hopes of all men
Death rides unhindered through the breath of his sin

For the Angel of Death spread his wings on the blast
And breathed in the face of the foe as he passed
And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill
And their hearts but once heaved, and forever - forever grew still

And there lay the rider distorted and pale
With the dew on his brow, and the rust on his mail
And the tents were all silent, the banners alone
The lances unlifted, the trumpet unblown


For the Angel of Death spread his wings on the blast
And breathed in the face of the foe as he passed
And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill
And their hearts but once heaved, and forever - forever grew still

Like a wolf on the fold
A wolf on the fold
Wolf on the fold
