Exile Lyrics
I heard it in my sleep
A voice more dead than old
I thought I'd known the fear
But then it touched my soul and said
Aah, you will pray for me
Aah, bow your head to me
It came for me at night
And took me dream by dream
To where everything is dark
And no one hears you scream
Took everything I loved
And turned love into pain
It said, "I'm the prophecy
And I'll make you believe in me"
Aah, sacrifice for me
Aah, be humility
Well, it said, "I'll make everyone pay”
Well it said, “I'll make everyone pay”
Some things you can't forget
I'll make everyone pay
Some things you can't forgive
I'll make everyone pay
And so it comes to this
Death or eternity?
Or would you like to pay
For all humanity?
Do you believe in faith?
Than choose heaven or hell or me?
A shadow on the sane
The final treachery of God
Aah, you will kneel for me
Aah, lose your eyes for me
Aah, betray the world for me
Aah, burn your soul for me
Well, it said, "I'll make everyone pay”
Well, it said, “I'll make everyone pay”
Some things you can't forget
I'll make everyone pay
Some things you can't forgive
I'll make everyone pay
