17. The Unholy (6:48)
Evil
Shadows they are falling
And the misty eyed are calling
To a god so far
People
Troubled times are coming
Still you wonder why I’m running
I will take no part
I know it was you this time
I know it was you this time
I’ve seen it with my own two eyes
You lied
You lied
Unholy
So vile
How can you justify a lie?
One more sacred alibi
Concealing
Your crimes
Until the end of time
Oh why
It’s you that should be crucified
Echoes
Of your true intentions
Well I guess you failed to mention
What was in your heart
Now I
See it all so clearly
What you did to them has nearly
Torn us all apart
I know it was you this time
I know it was you this time
I’ve seen it with my own two eyes
You lied
You lied
Unholy
So vile
How can you justify a lie?
One more sacred alibi
Concealing
Your crimes
Until the end of time
Oh why
It’s you that should be crucified
You say on your knees
If you don’t believe
Now
Don’t question a thing at all
Just receive
What you’re meant to see
Now fall
On your knees
Evil
Shadows they are falling
And the misty eyed are calling
You will break their heart
Unholy
So vile
How can you justify a lie?
One more sacred alibi
Concealing
Your crimes
Until the end of time
Oh why
It’s you that should be crucified
The broken
How they cry
They only gave you heart and mind
How can you justify?
They loved you
Oh father
Don’t deny
You took them like a sacrifice
We finally know the truth about you
You’re unholy
So vile
How can they justify
Oh my
How they loved you
Concealing
Your crimes
But now they see this time
The blind
We will deny you
Shadows they are falling
And the misty eyed are calling
To a god so far
People
Troubled times are coming
Still you wonder why I’m running
I will take no part
I know it was you this time
I know it was you this time
I’ve seen it with my own two eyes
You lied
You lied
Unholy
So vile
How can you justify a lie?
One more sacred alibi
Concealing
Your crimes
Until the end of time
Oh why
It’s you that should be crucified
Echoes
Of your true intentions
Well I guess you failed to mention
What was in your heart
Now I
See it all so clearly
What you did to them has nearly
Torn us all apart
I know it was you this time
I know it was you this time
I’ve seen it with my own two eyes
You lied
You lied
Unholy
So vile
How can you justify a lie?
One more sacred alibi
Concealing
Your crimes
Until the end of time
Oh why
It’s you that should be crucified
You say on your knees

Now
Don’t question a thing at all

Evil

And the misty eyed are calling
You will break their heart

We finally know the truth about you
You’re unholy
So vile
How can they justify
Oh my
How they loved you
Concealing
Your crimes
But now they see this time
The blind
We will deny you
