Don't turn away
Don't close your eyes
In false pride

Will you protect the light?
Reflect or shine?
That's your choice

We're heading straight into damnation
For an unknown god
It needs a rebel heart
It needs a pure soul
We're the condemned

I will not surrender
Let it be
I will not surrender

Now bring me your sacraments
The dead will not complain about it
Try, it makes no difference
No difference

The bridgeman
He must obey the order
Turns straight into the raging storm
Hatred's never ending

Save us
Set us free
Sky dancer
Down where the violent shadows breed
Hide in the underworld
Sky dancer
Hide where the violent shadows creep

Drown your pride
Young slave
Obey your master
(Master, master, master)
It's all I can teach
Obey your master
Master

Don't tell me you're innocent
Your guilt, there is no doubt about it
Crime, there's no deliverance
Deliverance

Watch out and believe it
Your men, they will be slaughtered
Give up
You better believe it
Your mission's to

Take us, set it free
Sky dancer
Down where the violent shadows breed
Hide in the underworld
Sky dancer
Hide where the violent shadows creep

No need for a settlement
Your claim, there's proof
I truly doubt it
Crime deserves a punishment
Your punishment

The bridgeman can always
Cross the border
Your choice to make
It's one more step
Hear the chasm's calling

Take us, set it free
Sky dancer
Down where the violent shadows breed
Hide in the underworld
Sky dancer
Hide where the violent shadows creep

In violent shadows
We're all condemned
In violent shadows
We're all condemned
In violent shadows
We're all condemned
In violent shadows
