of sins and shadows

Symphony X

Passing through the void
The darkest 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 our 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 our 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
Cannot hide from this monstrosity
I'm immersed in a curse
Of this jaded imagery
Realize that your cries
Only jeopardize this legacy
