1600 Lyrics by Shadowkiller

Guardians of the Temple

2018

1600 the year of rebirth
At the steps of the alter denied
In the shadow of the priest
Has your faith only been a lie?
What comes when we question belief?
Will we be forgotten in time?
Your words they mean nothing to me
And I’m prepared to die

You stand accused before us
Of crimes against the church
What is this blasphemy you speak?
Your lies are buried in the earth

1600 the year it begins
My beliefs they won’t be denied
In a journey for the truth
I didn’t make up this lie
What comes when you threaten religion?
I will sacrifice myself today
And become the martyr for science
I refuse to fade away

Recant all that you’ve said
Or we’ll send you to death
What madness can this be?
These lies that you teach?
Recant all that you’ve said
Or we’ll send you to death
