Last night |
|
I stole a secret |
|
From the sleeping gods |
|
A recipe for tyranny |
|
The human world forgot |
|
I learned about a potion |
|
That places in your hands |
|
The strings of fate and motion |
|
Of life to sudden end |
|
One drop drowns your memory |
|
In the lake of loss |
|
(One drop) |
|
One drop sells your sanity |
|
And nails you to the cross |
|
(One drop) |
|
It places seven splinters |
|
In your open eyes |
|
Turns the world around you |
|
Into a thousand lies |
|
It takes away your breathing |
|
And blows it to the wind |
|
Along with your confession |
|
"Father, I have sinned!" |
|
One drop drowns your memory |
|
In the lake of loss |
|
(One drop) |
|
One drop sells your sanity |
|
And nails you to the cross |
|
(One drop) |
|
One drop bends you to my will |
|
My will and my demand |
|
(One drop) |
|
One drop and the world stands still |
|
And waits for my command |
|
One drop drowns your memory |
|
In the lake of loss |
|
(One drop) |
|
One drop sells your sanity |
|
And nails you to the cross |
|
(One drop) |
|
One drop bends you to my will |
|
My will and my demand |
|
(One drop) |
|
One drop and the world stands still |
|
And waits for my command |
