Shadow of Tyranny Songtext
von Of Deities and Dust

Hear my cry-the end is drawing nigh
Have you seen it? Do you deny?
Hear my cry-the end is drawing nigh
I have seen it with my own eye

I will not bow beneath the shadow of tyranny
I will not betray my heart, my mind, my soul
To bow the knee, to fear any

Hear my cry-the end is drawing nigh
I have seen it? Do you deny?
Hear my cry-Gnashing teeth and heavy sigh
I have seen it-I now defy!


I will not bow beneath the shadow of tyranny
I will not betray my heart, my mind, my soul
To bow the knee, to fear any

I call the heavens and Urth to bear witness against you
That darkness has taken the Light from your eyes
Your seers see not, they prophesy falsehoods to please you
A curse on your houses, and all of your lies!

Stand, stand for truth! Truth, in whatever guise
Dare, dare to dream
Dream a new Urth arise from the ashes
Arise!

I will not bow beneath the shadow of tyranny
I will not betray my heart, my mind, my soul
To bow the knee, to fear any
I will not betray my heart, my mind, my soul
To fear any man
