Prometheus
Distant lightVerse 1:
They called him a liar
And damned for mere desire
Bring knowledge to lowly -
Gods' secret fire holy
Then they shackled him and ripped his eyes
Oh, but immortals can not die
Verse 2:
The torment eternal
For titan ever vernal
The torturers feathered
Snatch skin and peck his liver
Crushed, abandoned, cursed 'till final day
Oh, but his savior's on the way
Chorus:
Darkness and light, the trail of pain behind
Eagles tear flesh, bleeding wounds close up
Years and days, he suffers for mankind
Outcast of heaven, Prometheus
Verse 3:
Now I'm left with dreams, tears of rage and vain illusions
Chained to rock, but never ever will I beg for their compassion
My fire burns again, it's my visitation
My fire burns in men
Verse 4:
That was the thing that frightened gods most, but now it's late
Time has passed by and fire confined
Burned their grandeur alive
