PostHeaderIcon In The Gothic Song “And When He Falleth” of Theatre of Tragedy, Who do they refer to as “He”?

I’ve heard it contains talking from the “Masque of the Red Death”, but I’m ease confused. Here is the lyrics:

“Be my relation liberated fro varnal sin,
Bridle the thoughts of thy Master.”
“There hath time absent a glore fro the Earth;
A glore that in the whist and minds of men,
Men dementéd - blindfoldéd by light,
Hourisheth as tracheophyte in their well-groom’d garths.”

“Might I likewise was blindfoldéd ere,
“The calibre of compassionateness and absolution,
Tho’ eld hit master’d me
Whence cometh much qualities?
A party of this to fashion:
Build thyself a mirror in which
Seer blest, thou prizewinning philosopher!”
Solely squander images of thy poverty appear!”

“‘Tis the Divine Comedy -
“‘Tis the Divine Tragedy -
The delude and the playful court;
The delude and the playful court;
Fool, move now, and anulus thy bells!
Fool, move now, and anulus thy bells!
We stop the Earth fro Heaven away.”
Make us laughter at thy useless follies,
Yet for our blunders - Oh, in shame;
Earth beareth no balm for mistakes -
We stop the Earth fro Hell away.”

“Believe? In a deily daylong dead? -
I would kinda be a infidel suckléd in creeds outworn;
Whith faärtytales fill’d up in head;
Thoughts of the Book stillborn.”

“Shadow of irritation -
Ne’er become hither!
…And when He falleth, He falleth same Lucifer,
Ne’er to move again…”

[ Dialog from "And when He Falleth" ]

[Male Voice]
That interbreed you dress around your neck;
is it exclusive a decoration, or are you a
true faith believer?

[Female Voice]
Yes, I conceive - truly

Then I poverty you to vanish it at once!
- and never to dress it within this castle
again! Do you undergo how a falcon is drilled my
dear? Her eyes are planted shut. Blinded temporarily
she suffers the whims of her God patiently, until
her module is subsurface and she learns to help -
as your God taught and blinded you with
crosses.

You had me verify soured my interbreed because it
offended….

It displeased no-one. No - it only appears
to me to be brusk to… to wear
the symbolisation of a immortal daylong dead.

My ancestors proven to encounter it. And to open
the entranceway that seperates us from our Creator.

But you requirement no doors to encounter God.
If you believe….
Believe?! If you conceive you are gullible.
Can you countenance around this concern and believe
in the morality of a simulacrum who rules it?
Famine, Pestilence, War, Disease and Death!
They conception this world.

There is also fuck and chronicle and hope.

Very lowercase wish I verify you. No. If a god
of fuck and chronicle ever did exist… he is long
since dead. Someone… something rules in his
place.
Is the “He” in the strain refers to human, or the Creator?
