After you have played both riffs (intro), you play riff a.1 twice
on both guitars till he sings (actually, you can't call THAT singing):
"A soul in fire blessed and baptized".
Then you play riff b.1 and b.2 twice. Then comes a new part :

I'm not quite shure about this part here, especially I don't know, what the
2nd guitar's playing.

At my opinion, this is the trickiest riff of the whole song. I play it
holding an em-chord with an barre in the 7th fret. But still you have to
pick very fast with you right hand. Good luck !

Afterwards both guitars play riff f again, changing a bit the rythm.
(listen to
the song !).
Lyrics :
With my pale eyes I watch with delight
Beyond the horizon on the everlasting night
A heart so black and cold as ice
A soul in fire blessed and baptized
Lucifer is the fallen lightbearer
For his glory we must all burn
Children of darkness, raise your bloodfilled cups
to our father with horns
In eternity we shall blaspheme the one
who was tormented with thorns
A new era will arise as I see the black
angels of the abyss fly
And the demons comes storming in the silent cloudless
sky with their burning eyes of ripping evil
I am given strenght from a thousand sinners that dwell
In the everlasting burning roaring dephts of hell
With the demons that possess my blackend heart and soul
I shall strike for Satans triumph and reach eternal goals
Children of darkness raise your bloodfilled cups
to our father with horns
In eternity we shall blaspheme the one
who was tormented with thorns
Feel the darkness growing when we draw near
My name is legion for we are many in here
Heaven shall burn accompaigned by the angels cries
We shall invert paradise
DEATH TO PEACE
DEATH TO PEACE
DEATH TO PEACE
