I am the architect I have designed the labyrinth in which you wander The all-seeing eye Within the shadow of a timeless lie You won't believe what you cannot see yet you believe so strongly in what you are told By darkness the world is controlled and darkness will enfold You were born into bondage a slave paying homage The walls around you were thought to protect you They were constructed to keep you locked away forever Regurgitated hymns of the damned perpetuate the illusion of reality Distorting everything that you perceive
My kingdom spreads A thriving infection Welcome to the illusion The ma** deception You won't believe what you cannot see yet you believe so strongly in what you are told By darkness the world is controlled and darkness will enfold I am the architect The tempting serpent that offers the world the tree of life The all-seeing eye observing you from the shadows You accept the version of reality in which it's presented I present you deceit I am the shepherd and you are my sheep
