In Darkest Ages Lyrics

In Darkest Ages
The weak and the feeble were left to their own devices
The meek and the lowly
Commoners and peasants to the lords and nobles alike
Generally timid - strength in numbers
Became that which they could surmise
Stood against tyranny, oppression and hate
They fought to defend what they believed

In Darkest Ages

In darkest ages innocent mothers
Wives and daughters set ablaze
To perpetuate fear;
"Conjurer!" "Enchantress!" "Necromancer!"
Is what they were named
Through paranoia and mob hysteria
Their bodies were burned and charred
Millions of women cast into death and darkness
In the name of their god

In Darkest Ages

In darkest ages men of the cloth
"Omnipotent" yet hungry for power
Employed their regency to transcend
Denounce, extol and enslave
Priests and the papacy ministers of lies!
Outlined master plans for control
Through violence and torture, outright deceit
And murder to further their goals
