Lyrics
We lament their innocence
As their god turned his watchful eye
They all prayed, and then they died
To atone for this cursed empire
Lament their innocence
As their god turned his watchful eye
Never free, and never home
Only damned in the name of the divine
A vision that comes in the night
Leads children to take up the holy fight
Though their prophet was a boy with a righteous heart
They will find that their mission was doomed from the start
We lament their innocence
As the gods turned their watchful eye
Never free, and never home
Only damned in the name of the divine
Were they not sheep in the flock of their shepherd
Did they not heed the pious call
Only to be sold into enslavement
Or die by the sword
Puppets at the pulpit tell blessed lies
Only to use you as exhalted sacrifice
We lament their innocence
As the gods turned their watchful eye
They all prayed, and then they died
To atone for this cursed empire
Lament their innocence
As their god turned his watchful eye
Never free, and never home
Only damned in the name of the divine
We lament their innocence
As the gods turned their watchful eye
They all prayed, and then they died
To atone for this cursed empire
Lament their innocence
As their god turned his watchful eye
Never free, and never home
Only damned in the name of the divine
