With the threat of hell hanging over my head like a halo
I was made to believe in a couple of beautiful truths
That eventually had the effect of completely unravelling
The powerful curse put on me by you
When you set the table When you chose the scale
Did you write a riddle That you knew they would fail
Did you make them tremble So they would tell the tale
Did you push us when we fell
If my mother cries when I tell her what I have discovered
Then I hope she remembers she taught me to follow my heart
And if you bully her like youve done me with fear of damnation
Then I hope she can see you for what you are
What am I afraid of Whom did I betray
In what medieval kingdom does justice work that way
If you knew what would happen And you made us just the same
Then you my Lord can take the blame
