A Dark Sea (Signaculum Domini)

His words were said
The words of the weak
That some of them heard

He thought he could change
The heart of men
Turn a foe into a friend

With sorrow and pain
By whom was he driven?
Madness or God?

And all you’ve been taught
Is pray and bow
Down to a cross

On the altar he stares
At the blood-stained sky
Unable to stop now
The living hell below his eyes

Holy blood was all spilled
A dark sea is flowing
All over a dry land where
Divided men forever stand

Prophets of doom and of hypocrisy
Contemplate the agony
Washing away all the sins that they’ve done
With the tears of mankind

Drowned into a dark sea
