Redemption

Gates of Ishtar

Blessed are the fallen

Hearts full of grief

Blessed are the feeble

Who deny their own belief



I am stranded forgotten and forlon

A hangman buried by his fear



See the scarecrows laughing

By jesters mesmerized

Staring at me with cruel lies (eyes)



So bleed for me to set me free...

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done...

(x2)



Will you darken my bright sun?

Will you swallow your lost son?



Blessed are the fallen

Hearts full of grief

Blessed are the feeble

Who deny their own belief



So nail me to this cross

Then break the seventh seal

Paradise regained by guilt

'Cause the child has grown up now

And innocence is gone

Forgiveness is not running through your vein



So bleed for me to set me free...

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done...

(x2)



Will you darken my bright sun?

Will you swallow your lost son?



A spell has been cast on my fevered mind

To bind my mercy to the living

So bleed for me to set me free

Right now!



So bleed for me to set me free...

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done...
