Lyrics

[Intro] We are not the sons of God We are not his chosen people now We have crossed the path he trod We will feel the pain of his beginning [Verse 1] Shadow fingers rise above Iron fingers stab the desert sky Oh, behold the power of man On its tower, ready for the fall [Verse 2] Knocking heads together well Raze a city, build a living Hell Join the race to suicide Listen for the tolling of the bell [Pre-Chorus] Out of the universe A strange love is born Unholy union Trinity reformed [Verse 3] Yellow sun, its evil twin In the black, the wings deliver him We will split our souls within Atom seed to nuclear dust is riven [Pre-Chorus] Out of the universe A strange love is born Unholy union Trinity reformed [Chorus] Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] Bury your morals and bury your dead Bury your head in the sand E=mc squared, you can relate How we made God with our hands What ever would Robert have said to his God 'Bout how he made war with the sun? E=mc squared, you can relate How we made God with our hands [Bridge 2] All nations are rising Through acid veils of love and hate Chain letters of Satan Uncertainty lead us all to this All nations are rising Through acid veils of love and hate Cold fusion of fury [Guitar Solo] [Verse 4] Divide and conquer while ye may Others preach and others fall and pray In the bunkers where we'll die We're the executioners, they lie [Verse 5] Bombers launch with no recall Minute warning of the missile fall Take a look at your last sky Guessing you won't have the time to cry [Pre-Chorus] Out of the universe A strange love is born Unholy union Trinity reformed [Chorus] Out of the darkness Out of the darkness Out of the darkness Brighter than a thousand suns Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns [Outro] Holy Father, we have sinned
