Devil's Maze
Eternal Flames of Yearning: Nicko Sparks' Devil's Maze
Lyrics
Devil's maze is full of angel moans
The Devil's maze is filled with sounds of angels in pain or pleasure.
And you could never find none
It is impossible to discover any.
Cause heat that brings fire to bones
The intense heat in the maze ignites a fiery sensation in the bones.
As jealous as the sun
The jealousy described is as strong as the sun.
We pray to thee, our God, this day
A prayer to God for blessings on this day.
For the blessings You provide
Acknowledgment and gratitude for the blessings received.
But from ashes to ashes
Referencing the cycle of life and death, from ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
And from dust to dust
Continuation of the acknowledgment of life's transience.
So it must be
Expressing acceptance of the inevitability of life's cycle.
But keep this woman, oh King of kings
A plea to protect a woman under the divine wings of the King of kings.
Beneath thy mighty wings
Request for divine shelter and guidance for the mentioned woman.
Oh God, the Spirit of all our joys
Addressing God as the Spirit responsible for joy.
The cause of our delights
God is acknowledged as the source of delight in life.
The glory of our darkest nights
Reference to God's glory even in the darkest moments of life.
And the comfort in times like these
God is seen as a source of comfort during difficult times.
Devil's maze is full of angel moans
Repetition of the earlier lines about the Devil's maze and angelic sounds.
And you could never find none
Reiteration that these angelic sounds are elusive and cannot be found.
Cause heat that brings fire to bones
Restating the idea that the heat in the maze causes a fiery sensation in the bones.
As jealous as the sun
Reaffirming the intense jealousy described earlier, comparing it to the sun.
