The Embrace that Smothers (Part 1, 2 & 3)

[Mea Culpa]
O mi jesu, demitte nobis debita nostra
Salva nos ab igne inferiori, perduc in caelum
Omnes animas, praesertim eas
Quae misericordiae tuae maxime indigent

Sicut erat in principio
Et nunc et semper et insaecula
Saeculorum

[Leaden Legacy]
I can't look behind because I'm living in the past
Tears without emotion are filling up the unbridled hours

We cannot be
What you expect from us
We cannot see through the glasses of despair
Evade the leaden legacy

Those who separate and join the opposite
Do not see that that will get them nowhere
Can't you understand it is a similar manipulation
Wake up and see the light

Doomed to wander in repressed emotions
This imaginary refuge restrains me from awakening

We cannot be
What you expect from us
We cannot see through the glasses of despair
Evade the leaden legacy

Those who separate and join the opposite
Do not see that that will get them nowhere
Can't you understand it is a similar manipulation
Wake up and see the light

Fear of penance
Doomed to sycophancy

Doomed to sycophancy...

[Follow in the Cry]
Behind your facade hides an indomitable
Lust for power and tyranny
Taking advantage of your pendencies

Fear is the doom, doom of us all
Instead of exterminating the weed
We allow it to overgrow our function

All means are justified for the "djihad fi sabil Allah"

I embrace you, accept my soul
I shall make my life subordinate to you
Live like your rules and laws prescribe
And follow you wherever I go

Follow in the cry

Hang this heretic who's indulged in unchaste thoughts
Silence him such as the laws of the vellums prescribe

Hang this heretic who's indulged in unchaste thoughts
Silence him such as the laws of the vellums prescribe

Pusillanimous massacres the order of the day
On behalf of power-hungry fundamentalists

All means are justified for the "djihad fi sabil Allah"

I embrace you, accept my soul
I shall make my life subordinate to you
Live like your rules and laws prescribe
And follow you wherever I go

I embrace you, accept my soul
I shall make my life subordinate to you
Live like your rules and laws prescribe
And follow you wherever I go

Follow in the cry

[Yield to Temptation]
They told you not to yield to temptation and opened their arms...
...Make your own inferences...

Inscrutable chaos in my head
Inevitably
Greed will take its toll
Why
There's no place to hide
Let me free myself

The anathema's driving millions
Together in the pustules of our earth
Greed and self-denial the cause of
Unimpeded desecration of the truth

They told you not to yield to temptation
But offered you only hypocrisy and ruin

The phantom of damnation
Threw her coat over humanity

They told you not to yield to temptation
But offered you only hypocrisy and ruin

Captive in the shackles of this indoctrination
Depraved souls wished to be pure
Delight in deformity the last convulsions
Are building up a bridge to a new era
The assumption of a faded supposition
Never shall I be a marionette !

The embrace that smothers...
