A Night At The Opera

Cut off the light, take a look
 There's nothing beyond but pain
 Suffer in the deepest void
 The flame of hope is gone
 What have I done?
 Denied the father and the son
 For a moment it seemed
 There's space beyond the spheres


 Aflame the night
 So clear and bright
 Unstable light
 (You've been sacrificed in fear)
 Now there's one thing for sure
 I'm not afraid anymore


 Day after day we've been fixed in this bowl for so long
 For ages we're captured in shells and crystallized walls


 Predestined or punished? By Man or God?


 I cannot, I will not
 Deny It's false innocence
 I cannot, I will not
 The age of false innocence
 (Take it away from me)


 (And) for a while astronomy has moved the Earth
 And we've turned around the Sun
 (Sanctum Officium)
 Has made me believe
 Has made me believe
 Has made me believe


 "We know for sure you're lying
 Would you like to mess with holy science
 You know the fear of dying
 Would it be worth it to hear you crying"
 I've slaughtered truth and I've shattered my heart


 Far too long I have played with hellfire
 And science has turned into madness
 But I should have taken it higher
 So I feel, so I feel
 Like Judas must have felt before
 That Wednesday night near by the tree


 I cannot, I will not
 Deny It's false innocence
 I cannot, I will not
 The age of false innocence
 (Take It away from me)


 Day after day we will gratefully suffer for more
 Predestined's our part so we bleed in the name of God


 Don't believe in their eternity
 We're still held in blindness
 And I've been turned into a liar
 If there is no heaven there won't be release


 I cannot, I will not
 Deny It's false innocence
 (I cannot) I will not
 The age of false innocence
 (I cannot) I will not
 Deny It's false innocence
 (I cannot) I will not
 The age of false innocence
 (Take It away from me)
