lyrics

How long
Will I
Be bound in servitude
Denied
Blinding eyes
To the Master's words in stone
Beneath
Below
Beyond this Holy host
Minds to
Reap and sow
A shrine to flesh and bone

Within my hands I see the quivering life
I feel the blood drip down the ritual knife

And now
The sun
Burns to an ashen moon
And we
Breathlessly
Behold the work we've done
Oceans
Are red
Piled high - the surmounting dead
Stand proud
Be blessed
Our sacrificial lambs are bled

These paper dolls slip through my hands into this fire
I set ablaze this beacon - funeral pyre

Renew
Redeemed
A dawning age of kings
Tear down
Be damned
This dying age of man

How long
Have we
Been bound to prophecy
Denied
Blinding eyes
To our Seal
Beneath
Below
Beyond this Holy host
Minds to
Reap and sow
A shrine to flesh and bone

Heavy the crown upon the head of this man
In avarice decreed the death of our land
