LYRICS
Dwindling passion
In a world of sin

Wise men, intoxicated by their own vast brilliance
High time to show me resilience

Open the gates
Safe behind golden walls
Open the gates
Like children when the night falls
Open the gates
Are you ready to meet your fates?
Open the gates
Impatiently I wait
And wait
And wait

Scholars, hiding like cowards behind their troves of books
Certainly pompous lying crooks

Open the gates
Safe behind golden walls
Open the gates
Like children when the night falls
Open the gates
Are you ready to meet your fates?
Open the gates

Open the gates
Safe behind golden walls
Open the gates
Like children when the night falls
Open the gates
Are you ready to meet your fates?
Open the gates
Impatiently I wait
And wait
And wait
