Cover your sky with clouds
Concealed in haze, you sleeping grace
You have to leave me my earth
My shelter, my hearth, the blaze you begrudge
Beneath the sun I've never seen more poverty, but yours majesty
I peer at you on high, for a kindred heart to free
To take pity on me
Lost in pain - forever,
Left to die - together
I'm unslaved only by myself - my heart
Should dignify - wherefore,
Should victimize - no more
I was forged to man by the almighty - the time
Yours emperor - Hard and ungracious
I can not die - Suffering eternal pain
I am the master of humanity
I am diggin' in the dirt of the earth
Shaping races that reflect me
I'm creating this self-portrait
Able to suffer and to cry
I am diggin' in the filth of the world
Creating humans from the ashes
A kind descended from me
To despise and to disobey you
And from above god peered down in anger. He unleashed his terrifying servants to punish the blasphemer. With unbreakable chains he was tight to the rocks. Doomed to suffer indescribable pain for evermore. And his imploring cries suffocate in godforsaken loneliness.
Yours emperor - To the wind and all the clouds
My witness - To the sun and water-flows
I can not die - Suffering eternal pain
I'm begging for grace - Me, the master of humanity
Lost in pain - forever,
Left to die - together
I'm unslaved only by myself - my heart
Did you ease - my pain
Dry my tears - like rain
I was forged to man by the everlasting doom
Cover your sky with clouds
Concealed in haze, you sleeping grace
You have to leave me my earth
My shelter, my hearth, the blaze you begrudge
Beneath the sun I've never seen, more poverty, but Your Majesty
I peer at you on high, for a kindred heart to free
To take pity on me
