lyrics

Created by a nation with fading faith in future
A nation that lost the hope for freedom

Submission as necessity to preserve the existence
The image of this resignation shaped their God

Castration against all nature into a God of benevolence
Who does not know the ardour of victory and destruction

This reduced divinity soon left His Chosen People
And crept into every private virtue

Spread His word, His hypocrisy
His will to nothingness, His denial of this world

Holy cosmopolitan, shorn of every strength - You shall leave!
Shorn of every virtue and passion - You shall fall!
Hybrid construction of decay - You shall burn!
Symbol of a staff for the weary - You shall die!

The contradiction to life
The decrepitude to strength

Castration against all nature into a God of benevolence
Who does not know the ardour of victory and destruction

God of all dark corners, God of decadence
God of the good, God of the weak

Conjured up out of emptiness,
Contradiction and vain imagining
Where all cowardice and weariness
Of the soul find their sanction
