The sun is going down on this world
Reflecting the light back in golden sheets
Like reflections in a smashed mirror
And history itself repeats
Open eyes to behold this sinister nation
Open eyes to behold this mysterious world
The sands of time giving every indication
Of the dwindling flames of life as they grow cold
Remember the face of your father
Degenerating descendants
Sinking deeper in the poisonous water
His face a mask of anger and pain
Closed eyes can't behold this sinister nation
Closed eyes can't behold this imperious world
Dawning of the horror and the realization
Of the most demonous lies ever told
A holy cleansing turning dirty
Resurrecting the sinister days of old
Wander the paths of this nightmare, as the darkness veils the sky
All hope is fading into the coals
Blinded eyes lie beneath this sinister nation
Blinded eyes lie beneath this delirious world
Mass deception inciting his uneasy sensation
"Solid and eternal" cries the memory cold
The voice of the choir
Permeated with sorrow
Blissfully unaware
We lesser creatures
Scatter like rats
Sickened by the madness
But unable to look away
Suffer the journey where the only landmarks are pain
Along the paths of forbidden ground
Get a glimpse of the sun every now and then
From the depths in which we drown
Hidden from the madness and confusion that lies within
Praying for the gods to revive
Our utopian ideals again...
Again
Reflecting the light back in golden sheets
Like reflections in a smashed mirror
And history itself repeats
Open eyes to behold this sinister nation
Open eyes to behold this mysterious world
The sands of time giving every indication
Of the dwindling flames of life as they grow cold
Remember the face of your father
Degenerating descendants
Sinking deeper in the poisonous water
His face a mask of anger and pain
Closed eyes can't behold this sinister nation
Closed eyes can't behold this imperious world
Dawning of the horror and the realization
Of the most demonous lies ever told
A holy cleansing turning dirty
Resurrecting the sinister days of old
Wander the paths of this nightmare, as the darkness veils the sky
All hope is fading into the coals
Blinded eyes lie beneath this sinister nation
Blinded eyes lie beneath this delirious world
Mass deception inciting his uneasy sensation
"Solid and eternal" cries the memory cold
The voice of the choir
Permeated with sorrow
Blissfully unaware
We lesser creatures
Scatter like rats
Sickened by the madness
But unable to look away
Suffer the journey where the only landmarks are pain
Along the paths of forbidden ground
Get a glimpse of the sun every now and then
From the depths in which we drown
Hidden from the madness and confusion that lies within
Praying for the gods to revive
Our utopian ideals again...
Again
