GMC Forum _ Lyrics _ To Love A Heretic

Posted by: The Uncreator Jan 25 2008, 02:30 AM

I was sitting around listening to Iced Earth, and the song "I Died For You" came on, for those of you that dont know, the song is about a man who sells his soul to the devil after he dies so he can be with his true love again.

I liked this idea, but i got another one. This song is about an Angel (Female Voice Intended) who falls in love with a Demon (Male Voice Intended). Both God and Satan of course forbid such things, so they leave there respected realms of existence to be with each other. Not happy with this, both sides send out warriors to kill the 'heretics'. The song is unfinished, but it ends with the angel and demon fighting off a horde of enemies, after the battle they each take each other in embrace, sit away from the battlefield, and as the sun sets and the night rolls in, they die (from wounds suffered in battle)

It may sound alot unlike me but ive always been fascinated with the concept of true love, so anyway, ill shut up, and here is my idea.

To Love A Heretic

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

(Demon)
Cast out of Hell
For a forbidden love
The love of an angel
“Something I should never touch”

But we do not care
For your useless cause

And we do not care
For this holy war

To be with her
Is all I ever want
And if I’m damned as a mortal
Then rip from me
My demonic heart

(Because)

To see her face
To see her beauty
I’d be a heretic
I’d be no demon

To feel her touch
To feel her soft caress
To gaze upon her eyes
For this I gladly die

Purgatory
HA!
It means not a thing to me
Satan do your worst
For my love knows not defeat!

EPIC SOLO 1

(Angel)
Cast out of Heaven
For a forbidden love
The love of a demon
“Something I should never touch”

You sit there
Upon your throne
And listen not to me

A true love is born
But this you cannot see...

To be with him
Is all I’ll ever want
And if I’m exiled from heaven
Then tear from me
My angelic heart

For true love
I will surely end everything
To see his eyes
I’ll leave your kingdom bleeding

Listen to me closely God
You will understand
Forgive these words of heresy
But I leave now!
alive or damned!

EPIC SOLO 2

(Both)
Cast out of heaven
Cast out of hell
For true love
We will live as heretics
For true love
We will accept death

(Demon)
They send there worst
Warriors of God
Mighty ivory armor
Fall before my swords!

Listen to me lord
Oh mighty Holy Ghost
She is forever free
For she learned to love to a beast

(Angel)
Demon knights
A nocturnal hunger
Fall before my strength
Of mighty Heaven’s thunder

Listen to me Satan
Evil Prince Of Darkness
Your Demon lord is no longer chained
His heart belongs to me

EPIC SOLO 3

haha Epic Solo laugh.gif

Great lyrics man, but the title made me think of Morbid Angel more. I also like that Iced Earth song. I thought it was about Spawn.

Incredible! I love the entire concept of the forbidden love thing. Romeo and Juliet like sort of. (Heaven = Capulet, Hell= Montague) Maybe it's just me as we're studying Romeo and Juliet in school tongue.gif

Oh sorry I was thinking of "A Question Of Heaven" from Dark Saga.

Seriously though, I find the concept amazing. It's definitely one of the cooler ideas I've heard. Offtopic question, but are you in a band actually, and if so what style? smile.gif

Well im not in a band really, but i am working with someone on another concept story that is even more epic than this smile.gif
