A chronicle of wasted time
Rendered senseless sceptre and crown
But still more majestic

Where no sun to shine

Much of madness and more of sin

The heresy of an age of reason
Blasphemy to senses of man
Thrust the weak to the wall


Shrine of loathesomeness
Cradle of mankind

Forger of images
Downbreaker
Bring fear in the hearts of all


Wander about in the dead of night
Will ask nothing yet would ask so much

The eye of the throne telleth it not
For those who dwell, who dwell alone


Dwell alone

A loss I can never know

The heresy of an age of reason
Still more majestic of madness and of sin


Much of madness and more of sin
The heresy of an age of reason
Blasphemy to the senses of man

Thrust the weak to the wall
