If anyone is wondering where Kold Koch 2 is (which is mentioned in Holodnyj Koch in the first album), this is it. That name does a disservice to this song, however, so the title is simply 'Daniel.' I don't even want to get into talking about the meaning behind this song so I'll just leave it up to you. Human condition: Judgement.
lyrics
[verses]
It was late this winter when we got the news
from Daniel, our leader, of a monster who's
human-like body was an insult to life
and had hell's fires glowing bright in his eyes.
And so we stood there paralyzed
As Daniel talked of its great size
Wings that spanned all the sky
As if to hide us from God's eye.
And then he said
This thing's a plauge that can't be spread
It is so infectious and
we will call it Sartious.
[Chorus]
Oh Daniel,
won't you please
deliver us from this?
Oh Daniel,
if you say
this really does exist...
then
Make haste
and go depart
so you can face this evil
and pierce it's heart
Oh Daniel,
if you need me
I'll assist.
[verses]
Several days had passed until we reached the beast
it's shadow feasting on the village beneath
I said to Daniel "This doesn't make sense, because
this monster hasn't made a single offence."
And so he paused and deeply sighed
and turned to me with saddend eyes
Yes I understand this thought
but the Lord would want me to take the first shot.
And then he aimed
his bow and arrow with some disdain
Released the string and thus begun
How everything had come undone.
[Chorus]
[needs more]
Oh Daniel,
can you feel how
everything does shake
Oh Daniel,
let us hear this
last speech it will make
And from his fangs,
Yeah I found it odd,
He spoke not of Satan
But the Word of God.
Oh Daniel,
I think we've made a big mistake.
[ending]
Mankind,
you enigmatic thing,
This defense
is intolerance.
Your hands
hold matters stained with blood
Found His Word
but your ears, they misheard.
