Kamelot lyrics Descent of the Archangel

[MEPHISTO:]
Speak my friend
You look surprised
I thought you knew
I'd come disguised
On angel wings...in white
I can make
Your dreams come true
What a couple...
Me and you
On journey through the night
I will show you everything so vividly
You can't deny me
Bathed in moonlight
I'm proclaimed by angels cry
Think well
Do take your time
Because your soul
Will be mine the day you die
Name a pleasure
One...a few
Any form
Of lust in you
Will tremble at my touch
I come down from heaven's light
I have all the perfect alibis
There's so much...
I will show you everything so vividly
You won't deny me
Bathed in moonlight
I'm proclaimed by angels cry
Think well
Do take your time
Because your soul
Will be mine the day you die
Call my name or carry on
Till that last resistance' gone
I'm sure we'll meet again
I'm your true disciple
When the flesh desires
You won't deny me

Took me 8 years to find this song again. I would randomly sing it in my head and couldnt remeber what it was until today!!!

[@genapp3603]

couldn't you just google the lyrics if you're singing it ?

[@CousinJesse1]

@@genapp3603 sometimes that just doesn’t occur to people. In any case, I’m glad they found this song. It’s a great tune.

[@MaimingMusic]

This song is probably the sexiest thing I've heard in my life. Congrats, Kamelot, for finding the perfect voice for Lucifer.

[@4587445]

He is Mephisto, actually...

[@hexwolfi]

To think that Khan was so freaked out by his own music that he quit the band and became a man of God-- it's a shame, but also makes this song that much more interesting in retrospect!

[@dianeaishamonday9125]

He WHAT

[@tylerbutler2813]

What's the back story here?

[@UngodlyTurnip]

@@tylerbutler2813 he got burnt out by all the touring and travelling and wanted to spend more time with his family, he's back to performing again with the band he was in before Kamelot, Conception.

[@hyperXknees]

I can really imagine this being Mephisto's theme song if this were in a disney movie. Hope no one takes offense to that, not saying that the lyrics are childish, rather they are so lively that I can just picture it going along with some glorious animation.

[@The4Waiting7One]

I've never heard anyone do vibrato so extreme but so well like this guy. It's not easy to do so and still maintain the correct note and tone. Great band!

[@Razorshroud]

I want so badly for them to remake this song with some more modern sounds. This album through to The Black Halo is the best interpretation of Faust I have ever heard. When I was in high school I did my final project on it in literature class and I inspired an entire group of kids that literature can be found in many places and interpreted in many different ways. Masterful song.

[@kyoronaka]

IM PROCLAIMED BY ANGELS CRY! this song is amazing

[@zackzaike139]

i like how roy looks like he's holding out the lyrics.

[@AprellaDguild]

I remember when I saw Kamelot a few months ago with Fabio. They played this song, my favorite Kamelot song, and I was heartbroken because it was then I realized that Khan was really gone. Without Khan, there won't be a Kamelot for me. I know that the others are great musicians, but Khan's voice made me fall in love with the band. He's the best singer I've ever heard; live and on cd.

[@tobimakkura]

My favorite song of all time. Been there through the good, and the bad. This song got me through so much in my life.

[@nostromo_]

The absolute CATCH of the song is the whisper "because your soul" :D Mafnigicently put, whith aaaaaaall the meaning you need :D

[@azdarkforce]

In the final chorus he actually sings in what sounds like pretty damn high notes and there it is not whispered. Anyway this song is magic for me even before first verse starts :D

[@nostromo_]

A Z yeah because it is the very climax of the song and He (the devil) obviously wants you to remember it for good :D Yeah and Feast for the Vain also ;) Lost and Damned is the apex of the album :D

[@socalautisticman1975]

@@nostromo_ This song reflects how satan/the demons seduces us. Let us turn to JESUS CHRIST. In JESUS there is redemption of your soul on judgement day & recovery of your true self. All addicts to dope/all novice substances,excess drinking alcohol & all doers of misuse of sexuality(adultery,casual sex etc.) & and all soul lost in sin,including also other souls lost in crime,all lost their true identity as a creature & creation of GOD & turned to their vice or misconduct. E.g someone who picks a fight b cuz "they don't like ur face" etc etc. Nothing wring with Kamelot music ( my fave 🎼🎤🎶is House on a Hill) & Christians of charismatic movements use contemporary music I know a few personally of christian rap🎤 singers of Pentecostal type(me,I''m Methodist ⛪)

[@RG_Gaming03]

Kamelot + Luca Turilli = EPIC Win

[@AugustoLopezLeon]

This is my FAVORITE KAMELOT SONG EVER

[@jakobstirling9919]

This song used to freak me out. And then I read Faust AND IT ALL MAKES SENSE.

[@zackzaike139]

i need to read Faust. and get this album. i NEED this album. the only Kamelot album i have is Silverthorn. I can't believe i don't have anything with Roy in it.

[@hottieyoyos]

Some Guy o brother roy was sick .. he was the main artist of kamelot .. without roy kamelot is not kamelot anymore!

[@AeonQuasar]

***** He is really not that important. Really. Tommy Kaarevik is a very good substitue, if not even better. Still the reason I found Kamelot in the first place was Roy's outstanding preformance in Fourth Legacy.

[@allenzillmer1917]

+Morten Bakke Tommy is great. I saw them live in 2015. But.. Roy IMO is much better esp his stage persona and passion. But that's just my opinion.

[@santiagocalderon3261]

@@AeonQuasar yeah both are great, for example I knew seven wonder before kamelot so I also prefer tommy, however since Roy made the classic albums and he was also great its understandable that most people prefer him, just a matter of opinions I guess

[@silentmoviequeen]

Epic. I freaking love Kamelot and Luca turilli on guitar!

[@TheMikuma]

If Mephisto came and sang this song for me I'd be all like "Here have my soul I want nothing more in return".

[@danahorton2480]

Absolutely amazing, both song and band.

[@0NoName9]

Blew my fucking mind. Powerful, sleek, foreboding, fascinating. Sort of like the image of the fallen angel they portray. I've discovered a new love. Kamelot.

[@Virginny]

I thought poetry for the poisoned was my favorite album but I think epica might just take its place.

[@danahorton7917]

Awesome Song by an amazing band.

[@juliealger1228]

This song takes me back to the summer of 2008, fresh out of high school

[@marcelsgroot]

This band is great, I actually found it by browsing for simone simons. Being a fan of symphonic rock I have to say I enjoy this band as much as I enjoy Sirenia, nightwish, after forever, era and epica. And if any of you know more bands of this or simulair genre please let me know.

[@boldanabrasevic3020]

You should check out Delain, Xandria and Within Temptation too.

[@diegomonego1497]

And Nightwish...

[@boldanabrasevic3020]

Diego Monego Yes! Now I'm ashamed for forgetting them

[@muhammedmuayad6559]

within temptation and dark moor they've got talented singers

[@davesand1727]

Symphony X of the Odyssey and V--The New Mythology Suite era should be very pleasing to you then; or if you're looking for something more obscure and with female vocals, Stream of Passion's 1st 2 albums and Transcend--Deliver Us From Evil should fit the bill.

[@logictotalwar1201]

What an amazing BEAUTIFUL song

[@DestinyMagus07]

For the record, I actually really like this song. It's well sung, the vocals are great... it's definitely something I imagine the Lord of All Evil singing.

[@jeffreystevens8042]

DUN DUN You won't deny me...

[@jonathangamezzamudio4215]

The best singer Kamelot......

[@Ricksdetrix]

Songs like this make me want to look into the deeper meaning of it, they make me feel like death is upon me, but when i look he whisps away and out of sight.. amazing song.

[@bloodybuterfly]

my favourite band :x

[@so_qp]

3:07 I LOVE THIS PART OF SONG

[@dariokabas7427]

This song would be perfect for soundtrack of 5th season of Supernatural :3

[@e.c.ggamingcomedy3817]

Now it's the 11th season hahaha XD. I hope they don't stop making the show. I just love it too much

[@hannahportwood7162]

+Dario Kabaš Season 5 was the best season!

[@MazorKuziaki]

In order for a band to be extremely good, all of the members have to be friends. Seems to me like these guys are all brothers.

[@willdelum2340]

Luca Turilli's solo !!

[@Mohamedmifxal]

3:46 one of his best high notes

[@32symphonic97]

This is the song that first got me into Kamelot, and now I love them!

[@svartamiel9556]

Thank God! My recommended branched out for sabaton and powerwolf otherwise I'd never have found Camelot and Epica. This is a resonate song of heaven

[@misstiamichele]

ohhhh man.. I dont know what I like more.. Khan's voice or the killer guitar... *sigh*

[@tizzywood8590]

Sing to me mephisto :D

[@AkaElChele]

That's why Ariel accepted the deal :D

[@foresakenprincess]

this song already has my soul

[@liodhan]

I remembered Helloween's "King for a thousand years" =D great song :)

[@SilverIrbis]

@Ygdrasel Khan for Kamelot is like Tarija for Nightwish. Music is still amazing, but it is not the same anymore. BTW, I'm going to Kamelot concert soon, so we'll see! I saw Khan live, he was one of the BEST singers to perform live and mind you I've seen MANY. I hope that the concert would be good!!!

[@MatiDota]

This music make me feel alive

[@RedLion502]

@smoresandhoney it is a story, it's based on Goethe's "Faust", where Mephisto(or Mephistopheles) a devil character is tempting Ariel(or Faust) with giving him whatever he wants in life in exchange for his soul. It's changed a bit from the original story but similar. So yeah it's a story. I like that they devoted two albums to that story.

[@Zephemus]

Actually the intro makes me think that Ariel is meeting Mephisto at a peer or on a boat, something meritime.

[@Bruno08931]

Kamelot+Luca Turilli=win

[@guardianoftheblind9499]

They're lost

[@therealjordiano]

yeah best thing about this group is that its not the same old crap every time like every other band these days, every song is unique and awesome in its own way kinda :P

[@EAgony]

Hey guys. Let's just shut up and listen to the epic music shall we?

[@MsSayro]

an epic song indeed

[@MissMochaa]

i miss my 20 years , i didnt know this band

[@arjemtesla8495]

buen trabajo luca turilli

[@thatkidseth]

So iv noticed that anyone who does the lyrics for this song misses Shagrath saying "what you seek" and then khan saying "I proclaimed by angels cry".

[@999Jc999]

Amazing song and Nice solo :D

Awesome m8 :) gj... I've been looking for it since i created my new youtube :P but never found it :S thnx alot :) 5/5

[@AprellaDguild]

@Ygdrasel Well for me Khan's voice made the band special to me. It made it stick out from all the other bands in the genre. I didn't say that Kamelot is bad, they are good, but Khan's amazing voice gave them, for me, something extra. It's Khan who made me listen to the band in the first place and now he's gone, I don't have a reason to like Kamelot more then the other bands in this genre. I still like Nightwish, but with Tarja there was more magic and I liked them better back then.

[@JagoShogun]

...Will the money go through the screen? Joking. I hear that often. xD

[@Bugholeexcalibur]

Believe what you want, but keep it to yourself. No one likes hearing about what your mind can cough up...

[@rainyautumn7157]

This reminds me of Black Butler. Anyone?

[@hexwolfi]

Well yes, because both this album and Black Butler are based on the German legend Faust!

[@Arcanua]

@@hexwolfi Neither of them are though? Black Butler for damn sure isn't...

@SuperPenetration I'll join now

[@QueenOfTheDeck]

it sounds like a song from the phantom of the opera musical... I seriously though that was what it was from when I heard it in an amv

[@FoolishLittleGirl]

Probably because this whole album is based on the story of Faust... :P

[@metalreaper102]

@christanmusiczordude its a song and its not going to change you dont like it dont listen simple as that

[@Jadys_]

Roy is not gone. I'm not sure, but my best guess would be that he'll go back to singing opera.

[@hadriannomnie3355]

Luca turilli en el solo....y apuesto q metio su idea para el riff...

they mostly make me feel bored that epic

The Sound at the beggining is supposed to be a saxophone...it is not..

[@Raito75000]

Your comment means nothing. I don't rage, 'just say. BTW, if you like all these kind of music, you probably don't like this kind of comment too. There is no "fight against mainstream". I really don't care if somehow following the mainstream. It's his problem.

[@celeste---]

@AndoraLesley I would have thumbed up, but you spelt Sebastian's last name wrong. :( Just teasing; this song does make me think of him and Ciel!

[@DestinyMagus07]

God Almighty, can we just enjoy this song? It's about an evil angel deceiving someone, just the devil is wont to do. Let it serve as a well-made, well-sung warning or something! ...Also, I would really reconsider that path of yours. By definition it ends in hellfire.

[@pilsknot]

awsome song. just wondering if you could tell me the name of the album its from?

i will say this is great band it reminds me of a new age iron maiden lol but its awsome
