In the darkness, I have found my vision
I've seen the queen that thrives on desolation
A queendom that preys on both young and old
Open your eyesA pain is growing that mocks all true healers
The light of wisdom is making all turn cold
Those who dare to dream can hold no quarter
Open your eyesApathy in Babylon, dreams have been deferred so long
Those who dwell in misery, never receive my empathy
No one cares for anyone, the chorus to her fatal song
This woman spites everyone, this woman is manEnd the reign, the reign, the reign, the reign
The reign, the reign, the reignI have passion, I have faith and reason
Yet she decrees I am less than human
(The darkness hides within the light)
But it's my soul that satisfies her hunger
(The evil's always in your sight)
Open your eyesWhen the pretense starts to fall, the prefects make their margin call
Will you join the ranks of sheep, that will not a soul to keep
Their premise is intelligence, profaned by human arrogance
If you stand against it all, make the bastards fallEnd the reign, the reign, the reign, the reign
The reign, the reign, the reign
End the reign, the reign, the reign, the reign
The reign, the reign, the reignIn the world that you perceive, who are your true enemies?
Is it those you do not know or the ones you can't control
Does joy excite every nerve, from the mistress that you serve
Do you have the strength at all to heed the final callEnd the reign, the reign, the reign, the reign
The reign, the reign, the reign
End the reign, the reign, the reign, the reign
The reign, the reign, the reignEnd the reign
End the reign
End the reign
End the reign
