Religious Man by Redeemers
Religious Man lyrics
Religious man:
�I stand in disgrace; I�m tied to the stake.
I�m watching the end of a lifetime of faith.
And, it�s not the sword that beheads me, I fear� no.
It�s when I stand before the throne of my lord.�
Narrator:
Long ago, many years away, and for eons to come,
Will tell a tale of the struggle of man,
The timeless war between sin and virtue,
Good and evil, light and the darkness.
Angel:
Evilness won�t shine,
Unless you cross the line.
Narrator:
Merchant brothers have asked to leave their sister in
the hands of that man for he was renowned as the most
trustworthy.
Angel:
Entrusted with her life,
He agreed upon her stay.
Narrator:
Three days have passed; and, his starvation for this
maiden has grown inside. The bringer of chaos now
knocks on his door, and, makes his entrance of
mischief.
Angel:
Would his will give in,
Before the power of sin!
Narrator:
Hesitantly, he decided to watch the maiden from afar.
Angel:
Demons haunted his mind,
As the guilty conscience died.
The virtues upon him call:
�Have Mercy... don�t you fall�
Narrator:
The fight, the choice between wrong and right.
The war is about to start.
Devil
�Disarm; a touch won�t do any harm,
Feel her velvet skin in your arms.�
Good conscience:
�Have you forgotten the reason behind,
Your life on this earth till the end of the time?
Seek your truth inside,
Don�t you drift aside,
From the path of the maker, it is sanctified.�
Narrator:
The lust, now a monster cruel, unjust.
Inscribe his name in dust.
Devil
�Feed your ravened core,
Devour her body for your pleasure.
Haha� I win.�
Good conscience:
�You claim to be truthful; you�re far from that name.
What deception has lived dressed in virtuous fame,
Now you�re chained by desire, and soon to be framed.
Pay heed, for your sins only end in hells flame.�
Good conscience:
�I pity your rue, but your time is up,
For I have given you more than one chance to stop.
Now, that you are awakened, with tears of repentance,
Pray GOD and his justice, have mercy on you.�
An Execution Witness:
�Frozen by guilt, blood is spilled on your arm, she
lies,
From livid eyes, you can�t hide, condemned.�
Religious man:
�Now I must pay the price�
