Sean Hadley - The dark path of Anton (Anton LaVey) Lyrics

Born in the shadows of a broken world
Anton saw the light where the night unfurled.
He turned away from the cross and its shame
Embraced the fire carved out his name.
In the circus of life he learned the way
A master of minds and the games they play.
A rebel a preacher in black and red
He spoke for the living not for the dead.
Anton walked where the angels fear
With eyes of flame and a heart so clear.
He built a throne where the dark is king
A voice of power in the night's cold sting.
In San Francisco the church arose
No gods above no saints to impose.
He tore down the lies of sin and guilt
A temple of flesh and the blood we spilt.
Anton walked where the angels fear
With eyes of flame and a heart so clear.
He built a throne where the dark is king
A voice of power in the night's cold sting.
Not evil not good just human desire
A freedom born from hell's own fire.
He preached indulgence a life to seize
In a world of chaos do as you please.
He wore the horns but the devil was man
A symbol of strength his ultimate plan.
Reject the chains that they try to bind
In LaVey's world it's the self you find.
Anton walked where the angels fear
With eyes of flame and a heart so clear.
He built a throne where the dark is king
A voice of power in the night's cold sting.
Now the shadows whisper his name
A man who lit his own dark flame.
Anton LaVey with pride he stood
Not evil or holy just misunderstood.
