"Living A Lie "The Embrace That Smothers - Part VIII"" lyrics - EPICA

Don't believe what you see
Believe in me
In my reality
I am a man of God

God, can't you hear that I'm begging you?

Don't believe what you hear
Believe in me
And I will reappear
Salvation here at last

At last someone to answers all my prayers

Hope is a desert running dry
Deep inside
You refuse to face the facts
But pray for life
Find salvation in distress
We will wait for the day
You'll break out and re-awake

Lies

Don't believe what you see
Believe in me
And my reality
Eternity indeed

Indeed it's the end all and be all there's

Hope is a desert running dry
Deep inside
You refuse to face the facts
But pray for life
Find salvation in distress
We will wait for the day
You'll break out and re-awake

Lies

Domine Iesu, demitte nobis debita nostra
Salva nos ab igne inferiori
Perduc in caelum omnes animas
Praesertim eas, quae misericordiae tuae maxime indigent
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti
Amen

Living a lie

Human power
Will devour
Our senses
Bring us to forget
Human sources will not save him now
The power of faith heals us all

Hope is a desert running dry
Deep inside
You refuse to face the facts
But pray for life
Find salvation in distress
We will wait for the day
You'll break out and re-awake

And we wait for the day
To discover there's no way
I can't wait at this rate
It's too little and too late
To live this lie

Living a lie

-The text in Latin translated in English-

"Lord Jesus
Forgive us our trespasses
Save us from the fires below
Lead all souls into heaven
Especially those that need your mercy most

In the name of the Father
And the Son
And the Holy Spirit (or Holy Ghost)
Amen"
