I am the morning sun, the evening star
Your shelter in the rain
I am the mask you wear, that hides you well
Concealer of your pain
A demon or a saint, love or hate
For me it's all the same
Enter the masquerade the big charade
And pick your part to play
The dawn sets sparkles in your eyes
Reassuring lies, oh lord
I am the outlaw preacher, the planet of the apes
And there's no better teacher, than pure neglect and hate
I'll wear you down, down below
Now preach for me son
I am the morning sun, the evening star
Your shelter in the rain
I am the mask you wear, that hides you well
Concealer of your pain
The dawn sets sparkles in your eyes
Reassuring lies, oh lord
I am the outlaw preacher, the planet of the apes
And there's no better teacher, than pure neglect and hate
I'll wear you down, down below
Now preach for me son
Preach for me son
I am the outlaw preacher, the planet of the apes
And there's no better teacher, than pure neglect and hate
I am the outlaw preacher, the planet of the apes (of the apes)
And there's no better teacher, than pure neglect
Than pure neglect and hate
