Blind Guardian - Punishment Divine lyrics
[Blind Guardian - Punishment Divine lyrics]
It's warm and tender
But very soon it will turn cold
Shadows stare down from the walls
Out of the mist it's coming closer now
It never rains it pours on me
So let the saints set up the courtyard
The unpleasant cage
The obvious point is I'm insane was I aware
Whom I had slain i fear I was
The faceless the Nameless
The bush set on fire
No one ever dared to speak "Shame on me
I don't believe the here and now
Is all we're living for"
Joyful it seems but then suddenly
By one false move it's blown away
Joyful it seems but then suddenly
Their voices cease it's gone away
Vanished to the point of no return
Vanished to the point of no return
Witness my last breath i do not regret
A word I've said the strong will survive
The weak must die and out of the mist
It's coming closer now sinner and saints
The grateful slaves
Nature's law instead of God in heaven
From far beyond i can hear them sing
I hear angels sing songs of innocence
I hear the angels sing
Despite the facts are clear it cannot be
What we can't see i must admit
It sounds so sweet
Joyful it seems but then suddenly
By one false move it's blown away
Joyful it seems but then suddenly
Their voices cease it's gone away
Vanished to the point of no return
Vanished to the point of no return
Angels sing I hear angels sing
Can hear them sing
Far beyond I hear them sing
"It's true, it's true we don't exist"
Far beyond I hear them sing
"It's true, it's true we don't exist"
Well we all know there's no other side
It's good and evil i know right between
There's no borderline
This is the punishment divine
Surrounded by night
I've been offered insight
There is none but the sin of pride
Am I wrong am I right am I losing my sight
Abandoning the superior mind
Joyful it seems but then suddenly
By one false move it's blown away
Joyful it seems but then suddenly
Their voices cease it's gone away
Vanished to the point of no return
Vanished to the point of no return
Right away I will be gone
Gone I will be gone
Through the valleys gray
Through the shapeless land i walk alone
I'm left alone
Through the deepest void
A blackened paradise i walk alone
I'm left alone
But very soon it will turn cold
Shadows stare down from the walls
Out of the mist it's coming closer now
It never rains it pours on me
So let the saints set up the courtyard
The unpleasant cage
The obvious point is I'm insane was I aware
Whom I had slain i fear I was
The faceless the Nameless
The bush set on fire
No one ever dared to speak "Shame on me
I don't believe the here and now
Is all we're living for"
Joyful it seems but then suddenly
By one false move it's blown away
Joyful it seems but then suddenly
Their voices cease it's gone away
Vanished to the point of no return
Vanished to the point of no return
Witness my last breath i do not regret
A word I've said the strong will survive
The weak must die and out of the mist
It's coming closer now sinner and saints
The grateful slaves
Nature's law instead of God in heaven
From far beyond i can hear them sing
I hear angels sing songs of innocence
I hear the angels sing
Despite the facts are clear it cannot be
What we can't see i must admit
It sounds so sweet
Joyful it seems but then suddenly
By one false move it's blown away
Joyful it seems but then suddenly
Their voices cease it's gone away
Vanished to the point of no return
Vanished to the point of no return

"It's true, it's true we don't exist"
Far beyond I hear them sing
"It's true, it's true we don't exist"
