Lyrics:
Man: …You’ve been disarming me for days, and I’ve got my defenses all up But you won’t stop until they’re down; please don’t stop now until they’re down...
You banished my body from Eden For the forsaken fruit I had eaten The knowledge of things good and evil Corrupted my conscience Deceitful were the serpent’s words The wisdom he offered was not worth the curse Now I know everything… … And with this knowledge I shall crown myself “king”
Deceiver: Erect a monument unto the minds of men
Man: You built these hands, and since then I’ve been building everything with them So who’s to blame for all this mess we’ve made? And who’s to receive all the glory for this majesty? My man-made-majesty
Man: You banished my body from Eden -I WARNED YOU :Creator So I’ll ban you from the things I believe in -BUT YOU DIDN’T BELIEVE IN ME From the schools where we send our children -MY CHILD, MY BRIDE From the knowledge we bequeath unto them -YOU WILL KNOW MY LOVE, THE DAY I DIE
I hear the generations cry: “We feed our flesh and fill our minds with worldly wisdom; our demise”
Our lips offered the kiss That betrayed We washed our hands of this On that day
The day the crowd cried, “Crucify!” That was the day that God died for my misdeeds…
