You're a child of an old illusion Can't you hear it cry? You live your life to the exclusion Of what they call a lie The touch of evil it is getting stronger You'd better hide in the daylight Or you won't stand the temptation no longer And you will ask if your way is right
Do not ask the preacher why All your fears keep it alive Waiting for the end of time
Holy shadows, always follow Holy chains on holy shadows
When you are eve then I am temptation I am the words you're not allowed to say The animal of their revelation 'Cause I can take your fears away
They make you blind and they want you to follow "Free love is sin! Desire's slavery!" My wicked kiss on your virgin lips Will be a pleasant way you'll see it
Do not ask the preacher why All your fears keep it alive Waiting for the end of time
Holy shadows, always follow Holy chains on holy shadows
Let's get down on the floor You'll be screaming for more When out bodies collide I'll make you feel alright Never give in when they call it sin
Waiting for the end of time
Holy shadows, always follow Holy chains on holy shadows Holy shadows, always follow Holy chains on holy shadows Holy shadows, always follow Holy chains on holy shadows
(...father, forgive her for giving in to her lust, for being not able to stand the temptation...and for enjoying it!...)
