punishment divine

Lyrics

it's warm and tender but very soon it will turn cold, shadows stare down from the walls, out of the mist it's coming closer now, it never rains -- it pours on me, so let the saints, set up the courtyard, the unpleasant cage, the obvious point is i'm insane, was i aware whom i has slain, i fear i was: the faceless, the nameless, the bush set on fire, no one ever dared to speak, "shame on me, i don't believe, the here and now is all we're living for", joyful it seems but, then suddenly, by one false move it's blown away, joyful it seems but, then suddenly, their voices cease it's gone away, vanished to the point of no return, vanished to the point of no return, witness my last breath, i do not regret, a word i've said, the strong will survive, the weak must die, and out of the mist, it's coming closer now, sinner and saints --, the grateful slaves, nature's law instead of god in heaven, from far beyond, i can hear them sing, i hear angels sing, songs of innocence, i hear the angel sing, despite the facts are clear, it cannot be, what we can't see, i must admit, it sounds so sweet, joyful it seems but, then suddenly, by one false move it's blown away, joyful it seems but, then suddenly, their voices cease it's gone away, vanished to the point of no return, vanished to the point of no return, angels sing, i hear angels sing, i hear angels sing, i hear angels sing, i hear angels sing, i hear angels sing, i hear angels sing, i hear angels sing, far beyond i hear them sing, it's true, we don't exist", from far beyond i hear them sing, it's true, we don't exist", well we all know there's no other side, it's good and evil, i know right between, there's no borderline, this is the punishment divine, surrounded by night, i've been offered insight, there is none but the sin of pride, am i wrong am i right? am i losing my sight?, abandoning the superior mind, joyful it seems but, then suddenly, by one false move it's blown away, joyful it seems but, then suddenly, their voices cease it's gone away, vanished to the point of no return, vanished to the point of no return, through the valleys grey, through the shapeless land i walk alone, i'm left alone, through the deepest void, a blackened paradise, i walk alone, i'm left alone
