His words were said
The words of the weak
That some of them heard

He thought he could change
The heart of men
Turn a foe into a friend

With sorrow and pain
By whom was he driven?
Madness or God?

And all you've been taught
Is pray and bow
Down to a cross

On the altar he stares
At the blood-stained sky
Unable to stop now
The living hell below his eyes

Holy blood was all spilled
A dark sea is flowing
All over a dry land where
Divided men forever stand

Prophets of doom and of hypocrisy
Contemplate the agony
Washing away all the sins that they've done
With the tears of mankind

Drowned into a dark sea

A world of darkness
Where death surrounds us
Our guiding light
No longer shines
A life in black
Through an endless night
No hope in sight

The songs of angels
Died again
In pain forever
We must dwell

Drowning ourselves into eternal rivers of blood
Crying an suffering for the sins that we have done

Black king of death returns taking the shape of god
The wise and the fool and the strong and the weak will obey
Now the serpent keeps crawling through the maze of my soul
Centuries of men disappear in an immense decay

The flames on the grave
Will set our love free
A love beyond death
No mortal can see
The ring around your finger
Stuck eternally
A wedding in Hades
Is destined to be

We're on our knees

Surrounded by
The walls of my soul
Safety is where I'm on my own

Like a mother breast
Warm and still
In silence I would hear her heart beat

From the depth of my soul
I'm wounded by fear
Like a blade on my skin sink in deep

Don't follow my footsteps
They don't lead anywhere
I walk a lonely path on my own

My body lays bare
I close my eyes
Until I'm locked inside myself

I wish for just one time
Just for once
I could stand inside your shoes
