Album:

When Empires Burn

We knew it would be like this, a tainted eden lie
 From now the serpents gather as they sentence men to die
 They welcome fallen paradise while haunting every breath
 But the broken, cold and desolate soul defies a righteous death


 For men in arms are soldiers, they fight for their belief
 The struggle never ending to find the prince of peace
 Come the time, the only crime is letting truth be heard
 When a stone inspires a castle, the meek forever feared


 My angel, be my guardian now
 Sweet angel, may the song be a sweet forgiving sound


 Grant us now, the prophecy, the right to carry on
 Forgive us now, the truth, the battle for the rising sun
 Give us now, the prophecy, the gift of purity and show us now
 Show the door to set the sinner free


 We had to find a way to make the serpent shine
 The reaper sighs the fall of a man in a gilded temple shrine
 Then rise a golden future from the gold distorted past
 We say a prayer for the innocent in a dream too good to last


 My angel, fight to foe for me now
 Sweet, sweet angel, may the word be a sweet forgiving sound


 Grant us now, the prophecy, the right to carry on
 Forgive us now, the truth, the battle for the rising sun
 Give us now, the prophecy, the gift of purity and show us now
 Show the door to set the sinner free


 Grant us now, the prophecy, the right to carry on
 Forgive us now, the truth, the battle for the rising sun
 Give us now, the prophecy, the gift of purity and show us now
 Show the door to set the sinner free


 Grant us now, the prophecy, the right to carry on
 Forgive us now, the truth, the battle for the rising sun
 Give us now, the prophecy, the gift of purity and show us now
 Show the door to set the sinner free


 Grant us now, the prophecy, the right to carry on
 Forgive us now, the truth, the battle for the rising sun
 Give us now, the prophecy, the gift of purity and show us now
 Show the door to set the sinner free
