Let us refuse to wait till morning Return the ghost from whence it came A version of the forgery slipped through Tampered with the facts and changed its name Yet every night has its consoling agents Close your eyes and see The emperor will ride without direction Give us submission as a price Salvation is hidden in the fire Fall to your knees, devour the lies Yet every night has its consoling agents Close your eyes and see Sovereign smoke is overcast Free will wasn't meant to last Hidden in a dream Suffrage reigns The changing, unshackled yearning Once again, same refrain Echo through the kingdom Songs of love and death Wounds of love and death
