Sovereign
Sovereign
Supreme ruler
Sovereign
Restless desire for power

Feeble creatures impaired by diseases
They need a healer
You must act as their guardian
A raw material upon which you impose your creative will
Prosecute, silence anyone who dares to oppose

Slave to his own mind
Man is confined
You've thrown away the ladder from which we climbed
Thoughts only waken yesterday's misery
Freedom, illusion supported by sophistry

Resistance is futile here in your domain
Defiance only adds fuel to the pyre - with droplets they try to extinguish the fire
Your covenant, many-voiced, speaking in cracking tongue
Dreadful state of Man
Curse the day it began
Slave to his own mind
Man is confined
You've thrown away the ladder from which we climbed
Thoughts only waken yesterday's misery
Freedom, illusion supported by sophistry

"Sovereign, prophet of the people, lead the way
I am aching for your guidance
How lethargic I've become
Lead myself astray
Conflicting beliefs are blurring out my sight
Stumbling through a maze, the labyrinth of life
Terror rising through my spine
Paralyzed by the paradox of choice
My thoughts are clouded by volition
Free me from my will
Give me peace of mind and the clarity
My deliverance
Sovereign, lead the way!"

Communion in submission
Grown to accept their condition
Withered capacities
Pinched and hidebound
Idle men hiding behind a curtain of ignorance
Born to follow
They trace a path of unreason
Bow to the
Sovereign
Supreme ruler
Sovereign
Restless desire for power

Your every uttering
Cold-hearted, calculated
Always contemplating
Always watching

Your every uttering
Cold-hearted, calculated
Always contemplating
Always watching

Your every uttering
Stone cold, calculated
Always listening
Always watching

There is a sickness
There is pain
The body
The mind
The heart
