First of all these lyrics are all kinds of messed up, but anyway 'I know the feeling of being damned alone' - Lucifer was damned to Hell... alone 'I have a storybook of my own' - Mocking the Bible/ Holy Book 'I am your pride' - Lucifer was damned to Hell because of pride 'I can promise you paradise, no need to serve on your needs' - Relates to Beast and the Harlot where they say "if you want to serve above or be a king below with us..." Basically saying that Heaven isn't the only form of paradise and you don't need to spend eternity in servitude to be in paradise 'Harden your mind through the chains of the divine' Don't get sucked up in all the religious hype and lose sight of yourself and who you are. Defend yourself against the 'chains' or rules and don't let them define you 'I'm a dealer of simple choices, for me it's never too late" Selling your soul is pretty straightforward.... no gray area as there is in most Christian religion. Wrath and lust are both among the seven deadly sins, along with pride "I am your star' Lucifer can be translated as Morning Star This is how I interpret this song. |
