Birth Rites By Torchlight Lyrics

Junius Birth Rites By Torchlight

"And if I transgressed, and went into many fields of
science and humanities, it was not because I was born a
rebel.
I was coerced to trespass..."

"The belief that we are living in an orderly Universe,
that nothing happened to this Earth and other planets
since the beginning,
that nothing will happen 'till the end, is a wishful
thinking that fills the textbooks... And your textbooks
are still of Victorian vintage."

Why do we call for a sun's rise?
When the raining of fire will atone
Born on the floor, it's our birthright
Facing the spires of control

The belfry calls out to our fathers
To lead us all down to our knees
Silence is bred with conversion
The chimes ring out our defeat

(You know that we try hard...)

God dares...waits, oh!
My fate wakes, oh!
