Paradise In Flames - The Tepes Lyrics

The prophecy was made. At a dark night the child’s birth, a prince, it brought hope to a nation.

Year has passed. Trough the time wars and religion’s dissensions remain upon the lands. But the worst would come, the king betrayed, and buried alive.

Echo’s of agony and an insane hate awaked the revenge in the prince’s heart.
On that moment was sketched his kingdom’s restoration.
Trough the bloodiest and hardest battles he scattered fear upon the lands.

He was judged by the church for is acts.

Christians blamed the prince to live at the eternity.

Therefore the heir was fully skeptical and stood on the throne.

He was named “the Tepes” for impale alive anyone who disobey the rules.

The prince of darkness has no fears for his foes, drinking the victim’s blood.

He has murdered all the nobles of his kingdom.

Butchery was a picture to the battlefields, even when out numbered the Tepes surprised them all.

People loved him, with fright in their hearts when uttering his name.
The deceiver’s bodies were impaled.

In his heart, there was place only for hate, but a woman changed his course.
And with her, he shared his kingdom.
From her chastity a child was born.
From the battlefield came the notice of his death,
The widow fell into tears, but when he came back. She fall into the madness…
Walking to the death. The night got old

The freedom of his kingdom was threatened and with a great number of falls,
The prince asked for help to the nearest kingdom.
Such alliance only was possible cause the prince denied his own doctrine and started to accept his allied faiths.

The Church of his kingdom threatened for the arrival of a new doctrine, decided to silence the world.

With the sadistic and selfish thoughts, the church made a proposal party to the king.
From which no one’s survived.
