Lyrics of Faust - Septicflesh

All my life i strived to gain insight to things that sacred most men
Through the dungeons of the mind i learned the tricks playing with fire
Evil wears a weird facade invented to protect man's hate
For the painful, the unknown, the feared and the forbidden

I dreamed the devil was i
My quest complete
I dreamed the devil was i
I was awake
My quest complete
Faust

Captive from philosophies that root on hopes like rotten trees
I see the hanged men on their ropes
Which harvester will rip these crops?
If their soul deserved a dime their chance is lost - no bargain now
I want now all that i can get
Riches, power, pleasure without end

I dreamed the devil was i
My quest complete
I dreamed the devil was i
I was awake
My quest complete
Faust
I dreamed the devil was i
Faust
