[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
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 Heavens door
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
I believe it would justify the means
~#**************#~
It had a hold over me
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Blinded to see the cruelty of the beast
~#**************#~
It is the darker side of me (forgive me my sins)
~#**************#~
The veil of my dreams deceived that I have seen
~#**************#~
Forgive me for what I have been, forgive me my sins!
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Pray for me cause I have lost my faith in holy wars
~#**************#~
Is paradise denied to me cause I cant take no more?
~#**************#~
Has darkness taken over me, consumed my mortal soul?
~#**************#~
All my virtues sacrificed, can Heaven be so cruel?
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
I believe it would justify the means
~#**************#~
It had a hold over me
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Blinded to see the cruelty of the beast
~#**************#~
It is the darker side of me (forgive me my sins)
~#**************#~
The veil of my dreams deceived that I have seen
~#**************#~
Forgive me for what I have been, forgive me my sins!
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
Im hoping, Im praying, I wont 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 whats truly sacred?
~#**************#~
Will I redeem my soul, will truth set me free?
~#**************#~
[Instrumental Break]
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
(Forgive me my sins) Blinded to see the cruelty of the beast
~#**************#~
It is the darker side of me (forgive me my sins)
~#**************#~
The veil of my dreams deceived that I have seen
~#**************#~
Forgive me for what I have been, forgive me my sins!
~#**************#~
[Latin]
~#**************#~
Et est signum
~#**************#~
Dies datus
~#**************#~
Et tenebris
~#**************#~
Mea culpa acta est fabula pereo
