In the mendacious times of human existence
The dominion of truth exists only in those willing to die for it
To whom, so sure of themselves
The graves are full of those willing to accept God's will
For they know sin speaks in many ways

"Join us if you have the courage
Otherwise remain as you are
Failed men afraid of their souls
To divine your purpose
You must walk in the dark
While the moon weeps
Eat without a plate
While a King sleeps
Fail at love
While she slays another
You must know fear
As does your mother
Then and only then will you be ready
For the bullet seeks only a hero
But it will only know if you speak your mind
And if you die green we will grow again
And if it is the winter frost
Then we will know our solitude is ready our fate"
