Of Sins And Shadows

Symphony X

Passing through the void

The darkes grand illusion

Chaos is riding on the wind



Destroyed in agony

They create a maddened lair

Summon all to heed their cry



Innocence fading away

- the dying eyes of the prey



[chorus]

Desperate cries, hail of fire deciding

All out fate in the night

Tempt in sin

Shadows then begin to

Gather the souls they hold within



Victims of desire

Pestilence of their invasion

Forms then take on evil waves



Paralyze, victimize

The shadows fall and enter fast

from the sky - (from the sky)

Summon all to heed their cry



Innocence fading away

- the dying eyes of the prey



[chorus]

Desperate cries, hail of fire deciding

All out fate in the night

Tempt in sin

Shadows then begin to

Gather the souls they hold within



I've betrayed - slowly fade

I repent my inner plea

I've denied - sanctified

Cannont hide from this monstrosity



I'm immersed in a curse

Of this jaded imagery

Realize that your cries

Only jeapordize this legacy



[solo]



[chorus]

Desperate cries, hail of fire deciding

All out fate in the night

Tempt in sin

Shadows then begin to

Gather the souls they hold within



[chorus]

Desperate cries, hail of fire deciding

All out fate in the night

Tempt in sin

Shadows then begin to

Gather the souls they hold within
