Give me strength to face the truth, the doubt within my soul. No longer I can justify the bloodshed in His name. Is it a sin to seek the truth, the truth beneath the rose? Pray with me so I will find the gate to Heaven's door.
I believed it would justify the means It had a hold over me.
Blinded to see the cruelty of the beast It is the darker side of me.
The veil of my dreams deceived all I have seen. Forgive me for what I have been Forgive me my sins!
Pray for me 'cause I have lost my faith in holy wars. Is paradise denied to me 'cause I can't take no more? Has darkness taken over me, consumed my mortal soul? All my virtues sacrificed, can Heaven be so cruel?
I believed it would justify the means It had a hold over me.
Blinded to see the cruelty of the beast It is the darker side of me.
The veil of my dreams deceived all I have seen. Forgive me for what I have been Forgive me my sins!
I'm hoping, I'm praying I won't get lost between two worlds, For all I have seen the truth lies in between. Give me the strength to face the wrong that I have done Now that I know the darkest side of me.
How can blood be our salvation And justify the pain that we have caused throughout the times? Will I learn what's truly sacred? Will I redeem my soul? Will truth set me free?
Blinded to see the cruelty of the beast It is the darker side of me.
The veil of my dreams deceived all I have seen. Forgive me for what I have been
