Waking up from silence To white light back from my faint I’m alive and my hands are without chains Voices of the unseen Spectres of the past Guess I’d better pull down the mask Standing in lines, like an army of dead Paying the debt, to be alive Black mistress smiling, pulling the strings Controlling remnants of mankind They pray, they lie, to be on her side They die, they fail, if they get in her way They pray, they lie, to be on her side They cry, they pay, if they get in her way Unchained, the slave is reborn His soul finally tries the taste of freedom What lies beneath Silent screams Escape the world of illusion And enter the dream Trapped in illusion, their nightmare is real Playing their roles, for the right to be Fierce persecution for crossing the line In this realm you will never get far They pray, they lie, to be on her side They die, they fail, if they get in her way They pray, they lie, to be on her side They cry, they pay, if they get in her way Unchained, the slave is reborn His soul finally tries the taste of freedom What lies beneath Silent screams Escape the world of illusion And enter the dream They pray, they lie, to be on her side They die, they fail, if they get in her way They pray, they lie, to be on her side They cry, they pay, if they get in her way They pray, they lie, to be on her side They die, they fail, if they get in her way They pray, they lie, to be on her side They cry, they pay, if they get in her way Unchained, the slave is reborn His soul finally tries the taste of freedom What lies beneath Silent screams Unchained, the slave is reborn His soul finally tries the taste of freedom What lies beneath, silent screams Escape the world of illusion And enter the dream
