Avantasia, Ralph Scheepers - The Wicked Rule the Night lyrics

The crack of thunder boding evil in the night
Raging forks impale the dark skies
That carry and rock what they're
Afraid to speak of out to choke the light
A godless name the storm bell cries

The pestering, the blight
Someone's got to bear the blame
You name the name the wicked rule the night
Knocking up all disarray
And there is hell to pay

Fire! And yet we'll come for you again
Try to close your eyes, we'll show up anyway
Fire! You know we'll return once again
You can turn the page, the image will remain
We're in your dreams

They ride the storm that they've
Brewed up in secrecy
Speak in tongues, they curse and pray
Spat maledictions, lift them high in ecstasy
You don't get a word they say

The poison's got to flow
You let it off, rechannelize, depressurize
The wicked seed is sown to spawn disarray
And there is hell to pay

Fire! And yet we'll come for you again
Try to close your eyes, we'll show up anyway
Fire! You know we'll return once again
You can turn the page, the image will remain
We're in your dreams

And in the boscage staring eyes
Something hiding from the light
The wicked rule the night

Fire! By night we'll come for you again
Try to close your eyes
We'll haunt you anyway fire!
Be sure we'll return once again
You can burn the page, the image will remain
We're in your dreams fire!
