Samael - Shadow Of The Sword lyrics

[Samael - Shadow Of The Sword lyrics]

Listen!
This is a true story, based on reality
A mass of frenzy, a poison sold as remedy

They tell you knowledge is a
Curse but ignorance ain’t bliss
They tell you love one another
While waging war for peace

Delusion, fraud and deception
The foundation of religion

Is it that holy to decide to be
Nothing but a shadow of a man?
Trading life with death
Mixing lies with hope and living in
The shadow of the sword
Middle age in the 21st century
Struggling to survive modernity
Trapped in a time of obscurantism
Where minds rely on archaism



Arrogance, wealth and violence
The trinity of monotheism

Is it that holy to decide to be
Nothing but a shadow of a man?
Trading life with death
Mixing lies with hope and living in
The shadow of the sword
Is it that holy, tell me
To decide to be nothing more than
A shadow of a man? Trading life with death
Mixing lies with hope and living in
The shadow of the sword

Arrogance, wealth and violence
The trinity of monotheism
Arrogance, wealth and violence
The trinity of monotheism

Is it that holy to decide to be
Nothing but a shadow of a man?
Trading life with death
Mixing lies with hope and living in
The shadow of the sword
