The Towers of Avarice

Armed with the promise of salvation
Countless monoliths rise
Fires that feed their progress
blackens the earth and the sky
The masses that teem below them
are drawn to the warmth of their lights

The heaven you seek is in sight
Just give all and lay at my feet
The heaven you need is in me

In their midnight it is savior
It gives them faith
In their midnight it is savior
But it steals their souls

They are all just seconds both in line and in time
Moving forever towards boxes of pine
(x3)

Oh, innocent follower!
You of feeble spirit and shallow heart
Go as those before you did
Even though they were torn apart

All your gods in heaven cannot save you now
It locks the door and takes the key and will not allow walking out

It will sicken your will
It will sicken your self
It will take no mercy
There's nothing else
It will take your will
It will take you all
It will take a mystic
to make it fall

Shadow people
Faces without names
Go in willing
Leaving in flames

Cast into a manic mission
Led into a blind decision
Thrown into a dark submission
