The Embrace that Smothers (Part 1, 2 & 3)

Lyrics
[Mea Culpa] O mi jesu, demitte nobis debita nostra Salva nos ab igne inferiori, perduc in caelum Omnes animas, praesertim eas Quae misericordiae tuae maxime indigent Sicut erat in principio Et nunc et semper et insaecula Saeculorum [Leaden Legacy] I can't look behind because I'm living in the past Tears without emotion are filling up the unbridled hours We cannot be What you expect from us We cannot see through the glasses of despair Evade the leaden legacy Those who separate and join the opposite Do not see that that will get them nowhere Can't you understand it is a similar manipulation Wake up and see the light Doomed to wander in repressed emotions This imaginary refuge restrains me from awakening We cannot be What you expect from us We cannot see through the glasses of despair Evade the leaden legacy Those who separate and join the opposite Do not see that that will get them nowhere Can't you understand it is a similar manipulation Wake up and see the light Fear of penance Doomed to sycophancy Doomed to sycophancy... [Follow in the Cry] Behind your facade hides an indomitable Lust for power and tyranny Taking advantage of your pendencies Fear is the doom, doom of us all Instead of exterminating the weed We allow it to overgrow our function All means are justified for the "djihad fi sabil Allah" I embrace you, accept my soul I shall make my life subordinate to you Live like your rules and laws prescribe And follow you wherever I go Follow in the cry Hang this heretic who's indulged in unchaste thoughts Silence him such as the laws of the vellums prescribe Hang this heretic who's indulged in unchaste thoughts Silence him such as the laws of the vellums prescribe Pusillanimous massacres the order of the day On behalf of power-hungry fundamentalists All means are justified for the "djihad fi sabil Allah" I embrace you, accept my soul I shall make my life subordinate to you Live like your rules and laws prescribe And follow you wherever I go I embrace you, accept my soul I shall make my life subordinate to you Live like your rules and laws prescribe And follow you wherever I go Follow in the cry [Yield to Temptation] They told you not to yield to temptation and opened their arms... ...Make your own inferences... Inscrutable chaos in my head Inevitably Greed will take its toll Why There's no place to hide Let me free myself The anathema's driving millions Together in the pustules of our earth Greed and self-denial the cause of Unimpeded desecration of the truth They told you not to yield to temptation But offered you only hypocrisy and ruin The phantom of damnation Threw her coat over humanity They told you not to yield to temptation But offered you only hypocrisy and ruin Captive in the shackles of this indoctrination Depraved souls wished to be pure Delight in deformity the last convulsions Are building up a bridge to a new era The assumption of a faded supposition Never shall I be a marionette ! The embrace that smothers...
