Lyrics
[Gabriel:]
From a world of reign they come...
[Pope:]
In a world of mammon we have found it all!
Fighting for pride and for gold.
But the key to the reign, to the ultimate control:
wisdom of the old.
We have been elect to drain the wine
of Gnosis to hide it and pray.
Got to save our children from the beast.
We are on the way.
[Elderane:]
Remaining in darkness
the land of salvation will drown.
And when we'll have vanished
slavery will take your freedom down.

Got to save our children from the beast.
We are on the way.
[Elderane:]
Remaining in darkness
the land of salvation will drown.
And when we'll have vanished
slavery will take your freedom down.
