We've lived this life together in an endless paradise but something wicked this way comes They came in shrieking revolutionary cries with malice and murder in their eyes A fervent fever to control the just To pound freedom into dust Damn you, damn you all. Damn you, you planned the fall Damn you, damn you all. Damn you, damn you In the West the empires fall In the East the nations crawl North and South will seek survival the moment you came to life No you were dead on arrival New ways with dangerous means Smoke the pipe and live the dream In the West the empires fall In the East the nations crawl North and South will seek survival the moment you came to life No you were dead on arrival Masters without a nation or given a name Will make you sick and afflict the lame Bow down to all of our extravagant claims Prophets of guilt and priests of shame We are invincible the all-seeing eye everyone will know and keep their place We are invisible we watch while you sleep we can read every line on your face Damn you, damn you all. Damn you, heed our call Damn you, damn you all. Damn you damn you And now the ship is sinking No captains crews or sails the hull is cracked and leaking sailors seeking shore What we were now has been What we are will always be Time is gone without sin curse the day the evil came in And now the minds are thinking the men of truth are adrift washed ashore their bodies consumed by nothingness One by one and two by two They follow One by one and two by two They swallow One by one and two by two They're hollow One by one and two by two They choke One by one and two by two Over you Two by two and three by three They grew Four by four and five by five They live Six by six by six You die And now the hearts are beating a rhythm that is out of time as the beat pounds relentless these victims of the crime And a voice from above said Is it in heaven your souls you seek or the eternal mystery Or is it heaven in your souls you keep I will provide I will provide I will keep you alive Damn you, damn you to Hell Damn you, you laughed as we all fell Has the storm finally broken Have the floods all gone dry Did the winds finally subside has the darkness left the sky Have the clouds dearly departed Has a light filled the land A submission or illusion or maybe a sleight of hand Damn you piercing eyes Damn you democide With blood and tears and sweat and pride Comes a new golden dawn a new sunrise We all see the view true North still is true the fight remains in each of you the simple way is always through The acceptance of pain Accept the pain This gift of reason is yours to gain In the West the empires thrive In the East the nations wide North and South they have survived the moment you come into this world you are alive
