lyrics

See this miserable humanity
Victim of its own passions
That drive it to insanity
War, pain, suffering and destruction
War
Pain
Suffering
Destruction
Behind religion remain hidden the Man
To prevent himself from being condemned

« God, this is my redemption
I’m a victim of temptation
I hope that you hear my prayer
Would you accept the weak soul of a sinner? »

If you’re not accepted, you'll have to beat on death’s door
You‘re down on your knees to pray your God and implore
And he forgives and you continue to exist
But there is something else beyond the catharsis

This act of purge, of your sins' demise
Ensures to you a place in paradise
But it’s an ephemeral phenomenon
Which renews a pact with the Demon

Each Man has a part of evil in his veins
And the catharsis condemns to sin again
This is a symbol of God’s forgiveness
That defines the human weakness
