Song language: English
Been down So Long |
| Born from the blind, delusional mind |
| Bite the hand that feeds the lie |
| The garden is severed, burned is the truth |
| Open your eyes…'Cause God hates you |
| The serpents have the power coiled in illusion |
| A poisonous gift of beautiful sin |
| Paint the whore with the ashes of Eden |
| It’s time to face the end of the world |
| We have flown to close to the sun |
| But in space even angels can get burned |
| «As death rains down upon them… Cleansing |
| The streets in a cloudburst of blood, black |
| Leather smoke coils up my nostrils tingeling |
| With death’s surprise. |
| It leaks out through |
| The cracks in the cold asphalt sidewalks of |
| The city of sin |
| …Feast upon the images of molten massacre |
| As the machineries of death grind relentlessly on.» |
| We have flown to close to the sun |
| But in space even angels can get burned |
| Lunacy breeds in silent fire |
| No hope for mankind as the world expire |
