Verse
Stone by precious stone
The faithful work their hands to the bone
Revealing the images of Gods
Icons not even nature can dissolve
Pre-chorus
A symbol of division
Heedless retribution
Our history now in pieces
Did you understand the verses?
Verse
Depictions of the dawn
Sketches of a world unknown
The kings and queens they immortalized
…Cut down in the blink of an eye
Pre-chorus
Blown into oblivion
In the name of religion
Our history now in pieces
Did you understand the verses?
Chorus
And tonight they crawl, Into the Temple halls
Destroy the work of ages, flush it down the hole
And tonight we call, to the guilty swarm
Give up your isolation, and this elitist war
