I've seen the wall of reason
Torn down slowly brick by brick
Decaying into decadence
A dissident gone sick
Endless consultation
Of the godless and the saints
From the once so wise and knowing
No clamors or complaints

Crusades and campaigns that never will be mine
Lay down your innocent head and resign

When time and space collide
The void is closing in from every side
Bow down a reign supreme
His empire of fire

Like migrants in a fever land
A tide that never ends
The taste of greater darkness
In their mouths as he descends
Too late for education
Only warnings laid to rest
Whispers rise like hornets
Swarming from its shadow nest
Crusades and campaigns that never will be mine
Lay down your innocent head and resign

When time and space collide
The void is closing in from every side
Bow down a reign supreme
His empire of fire
