Epica – Martyr of the Free Word
Audio Published on March 20, 2019
Lyrics
Speaking interpretation
A conversation can take a sudden turn
And reaching the point of violence
Because your silence left you without a hand to hold
Your past will lead you on to make...
Making a final judgement
Based on your bias will never bring you forward
Terror should never guide you
For even the fearful can take a beating in the end
Suspicion gets you nowhere
Those who denounce a way of life
Will stand alone
Left to atone their social blunders
If you gun down the mess ... See More
A conversation can take a sudden turn
And reaching the point of violence
Because your silence left you without a hand to hold
Your past will lead you on to make...
Making a final judgement
Based on your bias will never bring you forward
Terror should never guide you
For even the fearful can take a beating in the end
Suspicion gets you nowhere
Those who denounce a way of life
Will stand alone
Left to atone their social blunders
If you gun down the mess ... See More
