Domine, quare obdormis? Domine ne repellas in finem!
Domine, quare obdormis? Domine faciem tuam avetis!
Circumdederunt me gemitus mortis, circumdederunt me dolores inferni
Circumdederunt me gemitus mortis, circumdederunt me dolores lacrimae
There's a secret fortress in the desert
Bathed in a golden burning sun
With a crackled earth and barely a sign
Of water ever falling from the sky
Will I ever find my way
Through the riddles and the trials
Holy cathedral of the damned souls
I've been searching for a sign
Holy cathedral of the tormented hearts
I've been looking for your shrine
I've been waiting all my life for the call
Of your bells, your choirs and your grand organs
Listening to the wind all around my heart
There are poisoned sources and illusions
Viciously abusing your mind
There are winged and frightened idols of marble
And men kneeling in front of their holy swords
But can't they see the blood
Still shining on their blades
But can't they hear the storm
Now rising above their heads
For we lost our souls
In the search of that illusionary shrine
Holy cathedral of the damned souls
I've been searching for a sign
Holy cathedral of the tormented hearts
I've been looking for your shrine
I've been waiting all my life for the call
Of your bells, your choirs and your grand organs
Listening to the wind all around my heart
Holy cathedral of the damned ones
Where do your bells and your spires hide?
Don't blind me with your lies
Holy cathedral of the damned ones
Don't let ambition devour my heart
And my soul
Holy cathedral of the damned souls
I've been searching for a sign
Holy cathedral of the tormented hearts
I've been looking for your shrine
I've been waiting all my life for the call
Of your bells, your choirs and your grand organs
Listening to the wind all around my heart
This is the last minute Cathedral
Right under my eyes
This is the last minute Cathedral
Right in my heart
This is the last minute Cathedral
Right under my eyes
With its deafening silence howling inside my heart
This is the last minute Cathedral
To light my wasted life
This is the last minute Cathedral
Turning to sand.
