Demon’s Gate Lyrics by Candlemass

Epicus Doomicus Metallicus

1986

[Intro]
Beyond all nightmares, I met my fate
An ancient passage, surrounded by hate
Scared I was, but with my hand on my cross
I went into the demon's gate

[Verse 1]
Across the Styx, among the mists of Hades
A gate of stones marks the path
To soul's damnation and Hell's wrath
Ancient evil is waiting there
At the doorstep to Hell
Within its darkness, the demons dwell

[Verse 2]
From the dark age, the passage hail
Created by witchcraft and hate
Where every sinner will meet his fate
The place is cursed by the hands of doom
Unholy powers in reign
The Devil's paradise of pain

[Chorus]
Approach, the Eibon opens for you
The choirs of damnation call you on through
The twilight possesses the heart of your soul
The starlight is fading to black, into the demon's gate

Demon's gate

[Verse 3]
Across the Styx, among the mists of Hades
A gate of stone marks the path
To soul's damnation and Hell's wrath
From the dark age, the passage hail
Created by witchcraft and hate
Where every sinner will meet his fate

[Chorus]
Approach, the Eibon opens for you
The choirs of damnation call you on through
The twilight possesses the heart of your soul
The starlight is fading to black, into the demon's gate

[Outro]
Demon's gate
Demon's gate
Demon's
Demon's gate...
