Theatre Of Tragedy - Dialog From And When He Falleth lyrics
Your rating:
That cross you wear around your neck; is it only a decoration, or are you a true Christian believer? [Female Voice] Yes, I believe - truly [Male Voice] Then I want you to remove it at once! - and never to wear it within this castle again! Do you know how a falcon is trained my dear? Her eyes are sown shut. Blinded temporarily she suffers the whims of her God patiently, until her will is submerged and she learns to serve - as your God taught and blinded you with crosses. [Female Voice] You had me take off my cross because it offended.... [Male Voice] It offended no-one. No - it simply appears to me to be discourteous to... to wear the symbol of a deity long dead. [Male Voice] My ancestors tried to find it. And to open the door that seperates us from our Creator. [Female Voice] But you need no doors to find God. If you believe.... [Male Voice] Believe?! If you believe you are gullible. Can you look around this world and believe in the goodness of a god who rules it? Famine, Pestilence, War, Disease and Death! They rule this world. [Female Voice] There is also love and life and hope. [Male Voice] Very little hope I assure you. No. If a god of love and life ever did exist... he is long since dead. Someone... something rules in his place
