Anathema - In The Name Of The Father lyrics
Your rating:
[Dream:] In the world of my subconscious, a realm of the unknown a vision is carved by the almighty hand The agony of a thousand souls supressed by life itself released unto the lord by his command. My hands are covered with the blood, the blood of his salvation. His spirit will live eternally Take his life, by your command. A sacrifice, by your command. As I rise from my troubled sleep, I pray the lord my soul to keep wondering if he has chosen me to do his work, I speak no blasphemy Do I confess? I am terrified, I cannot run, there is no place to hide I search for help, but there's nobody there for my dream is now a recurring ...Nightmare Brother of the holy order, I seek your help Understand my plight, help me fight this curse that bestows me My son you must not fight, for this is no cure but a mission you should undertake to free a soul from the grasp of ...Satan So that night I did dream of mysteries untold In the presence of the heavens was I I could see for myself all the evils of the world in all their morbid glory Men took part in rites to praise the black messiah the beast they call "The Evil One" As voices in my head did tell me of my task To release the soul of my only son [Spirit voices:] Take his life, by your command. A sacrifice, by your command. Fill the chalice, cleanse the soul Save him now, in the chapel of salvation [repeat] [Possession:] Insanity dwells in the mind of a man who will take the life of his only son Screaming and pounding inside his head as voices whisper... It must be done
