Suddenly my moment of peace
Alarmed and surprised my senses
Forced me awake

The devil! Secretly laughing
Watching us all (the children of god), as fear looms over
Carves lines on every face

Some strange ritual I suppose
Of shedding innocent blood
A salvation! A sacrifice
Unaware children! Had to run

All our moves have already been traced
Surrender! They said! Or we shall burn you alive
Save your little children

Havoc! People shouting everywhere
This is what you call a twisted fate
The revenge of destiny!

Chants and tunes from the deep dark caves
Make people go insane, as it grows stronger
They said Shut up! Just stop it!
Or it will hypnotise, our minds!

Suddenly we got wings to fly, our escape at last
But with it came a surprise, to give up the rest, and to burn
All evils, all goodness, everything or we must fall
To never fly again

Some made a deal with this boogieman
Who promised an escape, to end it all?
For others who did not trust and had to fall
Were sacrificed! In this strange ritual
So what was right and who was wrong!

We will never know I suppose
Because it was we who died
It was death we had to defy
We had to make a sacrifice
To get away, we had to lie!

And there is a price to pay
For what we do or do not do
There is a price to pay, and we sure did
Wake up! Just look around you
