lyrics

He brought disgrace to the monastery
Unspeakable acts that you won't believe
His crimes so vile
Sins to be paid by deaths certainty
Pleads for a chance of redemption
Scribe all known before sun's next rise
A monumental manuscript
Like none of its kind

Codex gigas
Death looms
Running out of time
Codex Gigas
Time lends to patient minds

(Chorus)
Life's dedication undone
He's fallen like the dark one
Free from the guillotine
but damned for eternity

Summon the usurper
Desecration of the holy text
The devils bible is born
His influence is bound to the pages

(Chorus)
Life's dedication undone
He's fallen like the dark one
Free from the guillotine
but damned for an eternity

Mysteries be told
Eviscerate the soul
Be free of faiths chains
Live to suffer another day

This cursed text
Will surpass his last breath
Traded through greedy hands
Cast out from the fire to land
Fate cannot erase
What is beyond time and space
It avoids every demise
It craves soul sacrifice

Ignorant to the the irony
That unspeakable evil
gave the church glory
Blinded to the truths that be
They will never change
Their god made them this way
Still guarded safely
Ever since the 13th century

The codex glorified the monestary
A legend born of its mystery
A satanic pact
Helped to escape deaths certainty
Pleaded for a chance of redemption
Scribe all known before sun's next rise
A monumental manuscript
Like none of its kind
