Текст песни: I For An Eye + перевод

This tale i tell that all may see

Behind god’s truth lurks treachery

'mine is the right to glory and light

And you shall have heartache and pain

Yours must be hell —

For in heaven i’ll dwell

I care not for that earthly domain.'

'for crimes against divinity —

The loneliness of purgatory

Your kingdom rule — humanity

Mankind shall be your hell.'

'why have you done this to me —

Tell me what is my crime

I’m tried and convicted —

Guilty the fate that is mine

You say i’m a devil —

Then by hell the devil i’ll be.'

'as aeons passed without cessation —

Brewing hatred from damnation

In darkness satan waited —

Laughed as god the earth created

And man in his own image made —

Unaware that plans were laid

'till from the dark eternal night —

A serpent crawled into the light

And so from darkness a rage without measure —

Burst spreading the cancer 'cross eden

Corrupting and tempting and never relenting

Abusing man’s newly found freedom.'

'out of the abyss i come the avenger

Shapeless and faceless — yet i have a name

I shall tighten my grip on your now flawed creation

Endeavour to show you the meaning of pain.'

'it soothes my heart

To see you cry

When i am done

You will learn as i —

To suffer in hell.'

'impaled on the horns of a dilema —

It seems what were my nightmares

Are now naught but dreams

For you who have riches know paradise well

And i who have nothing am burning in hell
