Cut off the light Take a look There´s nothing beyond but pain Suffer in the deepest void The flame of hope is gone
What have I done? Denied the father and the son For a moment it seemed There´s space beyond the spheres
Aflame the night So clear and bright Unstable light You´ve been sacrificed in fear Now there´s one thing for sure I´m not afraid anymore
Day after day we´ve been fixed in the bowl For so long For ages we´re captured in shells And crystallized walls Predestined or punished? By man or god?
I cannot, I will not Deny its false innocence I cannot, I will not The age of false innocence Take it away from me
For a while Astronomy has moved the earth And we´ve turned around the sun Sanctum officium Has made me believe Has made me believe Has made me believe
"We know for sure you´re lying Would you like to mess with holy science You know the fear of dying
Would it be worth it to hear you crying" I´ve slaughtered truth And I´ve shattered my heart
Far too long I have played with hellfire And science has turned into madness But I should have taken it higher So I feel so I feel Like Judas must have felt before That Wednesday night near by the tree
I cannot, I will not Deny its false innocence I cannot, I will not The age of false innocence
Day after day we will gratefully suffer for more Predestined´s our part
So we Bleed in the name of God
Don´t believe in their eternity We´re still held in blindness And I´ve been turned into a liar If there is no heaven There won´t be release
I cannot, I will not Deny its false innocence I cannot, I will not The age of false innocence I cannot, I will not Deny its false innocence I cannot, I will not The age of false innocence Take it away from me
