Lucifer
WHERE ART THOU OH MORNING STAR ?
COMMANDER OF THE LEGION OF SCAR
WHAT BROUGHT THEE DOWN TO THE HEARTS OF MEN ?
THAT MADE OUR HEARTS THE LION'S DEN
ERSTWHILE NIGHTINGALE OF PARADISE
WITH ANTICS LIKE A THROW OF DICE
WHATEVER MADE YOU START A FIGHT
WITH HE WHO IS THE ETERNAL MIGHT
HOW A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT TURNED SORE
AND THE DESTRUCTION OF MEN WAS WHAT YOU SWORE
A CASCADING FURY FROM THE FIRMAMENT
YOUR BANISHMENT REMAINS PERMANENT
AND WHEN THE LIGHT GOES OFF HE COMES !
LURING MEN WITH ROSE AND THORNS
A SHRILLING SIGHT WITH FIERY HORN !
BUT THEN, SO FINE HE HE SEEMS AT DAWN
