Album: Black Clouds & Silver Linings
This is the new world order
Played upon our fears
Spreading accusations of radical ideas
The brotherhood, of wisdom,
Strength, and Dignity
It's rituals and secrets, remain a mystery
Beneath the ever watchful eye,
The angels of the temple fly!
Turn the key, walk through the gate
The great ascent, to reach a higher state
A rite of passage
The final stage, a sacred home
Unlock the doors, and lay the cornerstone
A rite of passage
Men of wealth and power,
Influence and fame,
Philosophers and leaders,
Are members of the trade
Bound by oath and honor
Like the rose and cross,
An enigmatic union
Of esoteric thought
Beneath an ever watchful eye
The angels of the temple fly!
Turn the key, walk through the gate
The great ascent, to reach a higher state
A rite of passage
The final stage, a sacred home
Unlock the doors, and lay the cornerstone
A rite of passage
(Instrumental)
Turn the key, walk through the gate
The great ascent, to reach a higher state
A rite of passage
The seven stars, the rising sun
A perfect world, a new life has begun
A rite of passage
