Lyrics:

Behold the man who before you stands
A merry fool diluted with wine
He corrupts the youth with his truth
Blaspheming our decorum

No saint nor madman
Shall find redemption
Before our council

Beg to be pardoned
Kneel before our highest priests
Pray for your mercy
Truth redefined is our property

Behold the man who before you stands
A merry fool diluted with wine
He corrupts the youth with his truth
Blaspheming our decorum

Hypatia
Her wounds still bleeding
Sophia
Her light is fading

Covered in garments
Their shame is armoured
Against our nemesis

Naked beauty had no knowledge of shame
Until shame hit again and again

Beg to be pardoned
Kneel before our highest priests
Pray for your mercy
Truth redefined is our property
Speak as instructed
Your life may be granted you
Lose your illusions
The court will be grateful to you
