Slithering through the sands of time Behind, a golden tale From the pages of a book, I shape the Hammers and the Nails History has shown, my mark on every throne Amidst the blood and bone I'm your savior, I'm the one. In the dark I hold the sun, Before your birth you wear my stain I am HOLY, You know my name I was born to elevate, man above the world Keep him separate from the beasts, from the strange and the unheard Fear and hate my soil. Ignorance my coil I bring you shame and toil I'm your savior, I'm the one. In the dark I hold the sun, Before your birth you wear my stain I am HOLY, You know my name Confounded by their emptiness they fill their hearts with lies Twisted by their righteousness, their wrongs become their rights Forever living in the dark they pray the end is bright For the promise of eternity they throw away their lives Though you'll never see my face, you'll never be alone I'm watching all you do, carving it into a stone Forgiveness mine to sell, from the garden where they fell Is it Heaven - Is it Hell? Yeah! I'm your savior, I'm the one. In the dark I hold the sun, Before your birth you wear my stain I am HOLY, You know my name.
