Lyrics for Eden Lies Obscured

The quest for Eden leads us on, fuel to theorize Is there a place in time where war and peace collide? Our lives begin naked and unknowing Given time we spoil as desire shapes our will Sing unto me sinners, the masses are on fire The flames skin deep through the core of life The minions learn through fear and uprise Fading in the distant haze the myths we've made burn on Sing a song of sadness of lunacy's mad lore Bastardized by the dogs of war A woman still pure made a whore Leaders throughout history killed for Eden's gain No one knows where Eden lies Between hope and fantasy so pure No one knows where Eden lies Fools sits on high so Eden lies obscured From our view Inside your mind is the key to the garden's gate The quest for Eden leads us on, fuel to theorize Is there a place in time where war and peace collide? Sing unto me sinners and share with me your minds The keys to knowledge we seek to find Those who conform push thorns in our eyes But still I persist join in my cause For change is eclipsed by apathy No one knows where Eden lies Fools sit on high, so Eden lies obscured
