(Lyrics: Sundin) Now oppression stalks the remnants of compassion, brewing hatred to surface in wicked actions Cloaked in peace and mercy, force their false confessions Sentenced am I dying, cleansed from all salvation "Defy our accusations and a certain death you'll meet A fool denies the obvious, and fools we shall defeat" All sanity now vanquished, ever mould beyond control My guilt stands yet unproven though they still demand my fall Demand my fall Blood runs beyond enlightenment at inquisition's hands Vicious burn the fires swiftly out of hand Now my fate lies in their "hands of liberation" forming law and justice into obscuration leading lies ensuring my life ceased in fire, In the name of peace, to cleance my dark desires "You stand accused of herasy and all what that implies With darkened minds you summon those who're fallen from the skies" Envenomed bleed their poisoned hearts, the power they've abused A deadly game of envy in which my life I'll lose Blood runs beyond enlightenment at inquisition's hands Vicious burn the fires swiftly out of hand Shackled, fettered - choking as I drown Fooled and tortured - confess comitted crimes Shackled, fettered - choking as I drown Fooled and tortured - confess comitted crimes Sentenced by superstition - my innocense denied Truth is strange than fiction - religious genocide Alone in blind desperation, I face my mournful death
