East Of Eden

I was told this in a distant land where tortured

souls have to fight together in anguish

And the scenes of the show are of a cruel and violent nature

Scenes of pain and cruelty are there to be seen

The arena, the town, the place was set for all to watch and see

I was told this in a distant land where the oppressor ruled with an iron hand

And a mission of saddened complacency left cold and emotionless by history

Scenes of pain and cruelty are there to be seen

All the while I should have known it was you killing me

Somewhere is the leader, the designs will never change

Vented through other's fear the world stops at the end of the hall

We watch the lifeforce fade away

And that's the price we shall have to pay
