Of Pain, Transcendence and the Dark Design Lyrics

Underneath the moon she lay
The godless child of fear and pain
The benefactor falls into the fire

Silently she's on her knees
Something's crawling throught trees
Tounge removed and eyes sewn up with wire

Her selfish love is calling
Spreads in the dismal shade

She hates the gods of Earth and sea
And bears the fruit of her disease
Her secrecy is born of her desire

The human face that she reveals
Hides the truth that she conceals
Her jealosy confirms her as a liar

Her weeping night and day
Awakens those who dream

Seeking out transcendence
Searching for the endless pain
That makes her feel alive
Looking for a reason
Justifying all the pain
That penetrates our lives

Far beneath the ground she walks
In catacombs of death she stalks
And whispers to dead she's their messiah

She revels in her blasphemy
Denies the path of destiny
Bringing down the veil of her pariah

The angel rises up and greets
The ever burning sun

Pain and pleasure now as one
The love of hatred has begun
A hunger for the blood she will devour

The morning brings a deadly dew
Across the lake the bodies strewn
The stench of death grows stronger
By the hour

And wash the dusk with silver
Reflecting in her eyes

Seeking out transcendence
Searching for the endless pain
That makes her feel alive
Looking for a reason
Justifying all the pain
That penetrates our lives

Solo - George

Staring at the moonless sky
She opens up her wings to fly
The god she loved has turned into a liar

The Painful Road to Eden
Is winding on and on

Standing naked in the rye
Her arms are held up to the sky
She's going under...

The angel rises up and greets
The ever burning sun

Seeking out transcendence
Searching for the endless pain
That makes her feel alive
Looking for a reason
Justifying all the pain
That penetrates our lives
