Eleven saintly shrouded men Silhouettes stand against the sky One in front with a cross held high Come to wash my sins away Standing alone in the wind and rain Feeling the fear that is growing Sensing the change in the tide again Caught by the storm that is brewing Feel the anxiety hold off the fear Some of the doubt in the things you believe Now that your faith will be put to the test Nothing to do but await what is coming Why is then God still protecting me Even when I don't deserve it? Though I am blessed with an inner strength Some they would call it a penance Why am I meant to face this alone Asking the question time and again Praying to God won't keep me alive Inside my head feel the fear start to rise... They'll be saving their prayers when the moment comes There'll be penance to pay when it's judgement day And the guilty'll bleed when that moment comes They'll be coming to claim, take your soul away The sign of the cross The name of the rose A fire in the sky The sign of the cross They'll be coming to bring the eternal flame They'll be bringing us all immortality Holding comunion so the world be blessed My creator, my God, lay my soul to rest The sign of the cross The name of the rose A fire in the sky The sign of the cross The sign of the cross The name of the rose A fire in the sky The sign of the cross The name of the rose The sign of the cross Lost the love of heaven above Chose the lust of the earth below Eleven saintly shrouded men Came to wash my sins away

Oh To be Not anyone Gone This maze of being Skin Oh To cry Not any cry So mournful that The dove just laughs The steadfast gasps Oh To owe Not anyone Nothing To be Not here But here Forsaking Equatorial bliss Who walked through The callow mist Dressed in scraps Who walked The curve of the world Whose bone scraped Whose flesh unfurled Who grieves not Anyone gone To greet lame The inspired sky Amazed to stumble Where gods get lost Beneath The southern cross

Heading for the classroom yesterday The kids file through the metal machine It finds what they may hide No it just ain't right... A sign of the times Another church is burning to the ground... Looking for the vandals and they're nowhere to be found But the hate's alive A sign of the times, Sign of the times... A sign of the times, Sign of the times...

I see the road to tomorrow in the haze! (Solo) On the Senate floor they congregate Many pockets lined with green, From those behind the scenes, yeah they take the bribe (it's on the side) A sign of the times, Sign of the times...

You see right through distorted eyes You know you have to learn The execution of your mind You really have to turn The race is run, the book is read The end begins to show The truth is out, the lies are old But you don't want to know Nobody will ever let you know When you ask the reasons why They just tell you that you're on your own Fill your head all full of lies The people who have crippled you You want to see them burn The gates of life have closed on you And there's just no return You're wishing that the Could take your mind away And you don't care if you don't see Again the light of day Nobody will ever let you know When you ask the reasons why They just tell you that you're on your own Fill your head all full of lies You bastards Where can you run to What more can you do No more tomorrow Life is killing you Dreams turn to nightmares Heaven turns to Hell Burnt out confusion Nothing more to tell, yeah Everything around you What's it coming to God knows as your dog knows Bog blast all of you Sabbath, bloody Sabbath Nothing more to do Living just for dying Dying just for you, yeah

Astral engines in reverse I'm falling through the universe again Down among a dead man's vision Faded dreams and nuclear fission span The strings of theory are holding up the race The puppets falling to the ground The love I feel as I fly endlessly through space Lost in time I wonder, "Will my ship be found?" On this sinking ship I travel Faster than the speed of light Not so supernova burns The black holes turn and fade from sight The strings of fear hide in the human race The answers buried underground The love I feel as I fly endlessly through space Lost in time I wonder, "Will my ship be found?" And very soon The bomber's moon Will show us light And as we crash We'll pray and kiss And say goodnight Goodnight

Say you don't love me, you'll burn You can refuse, but you'll lose, it's by me Say you don't want me, you'll learn Nothing you do will be new 'cause I'm through Oh Call me a liar, you knew You were a fool, but that's cool, it's all right Call me the devil, it's true Some can't accept but I crept inside you So if a stranger calls you Don't let him whisper his name 'Cause it's voodoo Fade into shadow, you'll burn Your fortune is free, I can see it's no good Never look back, never turn It's a question of time till you're mine and you learn So if a stranger sees you Don't look in his eyes 'Cause he's voodoo Say you don't love me, you'll burn You can refuse, but you'll lose, it's by me Say you don't want me, you'll learn Nothing you do will be new 'cause I'm through Voodoo Bring me your children, they'll burn Never look back, never turn Cry me a river, you'll learn Voodoo

Pariah from society Addicted to sobriety A product of a virgin birth, another God on Earth Yes, that's your fantasy You say that you could read my mind Be careful of what you might find You think that you can be like me and see what my eyes see But you're no friend of mine Do you believe every word I say? Make your own truth and get out of my way I'm your pariah For your desire Ain't no messiah Just your pariah An angel or the Antichrist A symbol of your own device Pathetic in your own sad way You're just one pill away from taking my advice Do you believe every word I say? Make up your mind and get out of my way I'm your pariah For your desire Ain't no messiah Just your pariah Do you believe that I'm from Heaven? That I descended from the sky? The graven image of a pseudo icon To worship me on high I'm not your saviour I got no wings to fly Just your pariah Don't look to me when your life is over I'm your pariah For your desire Ain't no messiah Just your pariah Ain't no messiah Just your pariah
