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
Shadow fingers rise above / Iron fingers stab the desert sky / Oh, behold the power of man / On its tower, ready for the fall
Knocking heads together well / Raze a city, build a living Hell / Join the race to suicide / Listen for the tolling of the bell
Out of the universe / A strange love is born / Unholy union / Trinity reformed
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
Out of the universe / A strange love is born / Unholy union / Trinity reformed
Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns…
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
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
Divide and conquer while ye may / Others preach and others fall and pray / In the bunkers where we’ll die / Where the executioners, they lie
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
Out of the universe / A strange love is born / Unholy union / Trinity reformed
Out of the darkness… / Brighter than a thousand suns / Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns…
Holy Father, we have sinned
