Heavily secluded from all but faith
A family in hiding from the world
Firm praying, blind loyalty, reciting words divine
From the eldest to the youngest one
Their sheer belief in the son's return
If not stayed true, in the abyss would burn
The apparition, a messenger of the eternal scripture
Phantom of shine, disembodied and descent of heaven
The apparition, her appearance was so real
Without suspicion, all the prayers of the family were finally heard
On a humid spring evening
When the idyll couldn't be more perfect
Out from their flower garden
Through the blinders came an overwhelming light
♪
They gathered on the porch and stood and watched in awe
Angelic deity, so clean, like the purest dream
Their fingers laced together
As they dropped to their knees worshipping
Happy pearly tears, oh such beauty lives
Sweet angels dei look up on me
The apparition spoke with a silky yet whirring voice of wonder
You have been faithful to the omnipotent
I come to grant you a challenge of life
Time to show your true worth to the Lord
♪
A paradise awaits the few undoubting
To measure up and prove them self abiding
Fulfill the needs of dominus
♪
Then it disappeared, the unearthly seer, left the witnesses impaired
Now they knew for sure
That praying was the door to his holiness' embrace
The parents and younglings went inside and began chanting pages
In front of the altar
That they had built next to the tepid white tile store
The apparition, she came and gave them hope
The apparition, why would she dupe, poor the people thought
♪
Their black bound bible got scrutinised
Inside the father's head a voice would rise
(Which said)
An unbeliever (the filthy child)
Among your flock (I order you to punish)
Your scrupling daughter (that whoring freak)
Is against us (and make her bleed)
He yanked her arm and pulled her outside
Shoved her to the dirty wall of the tool shed
While hearing the apparition
Whipped her good 'til it got messy
Grabbed an axe he was steered by frenzy
Just do it the voice kept ranting
As he cut away his little girl, someone walked up behind him screaming
Cried in panic
He turned around and saw his loving wife
Without a blink he then knew to attack her
Voice kept praising
Feeding her the hatchet
As the apparition kept applauding the spouse's onslaughter
Limbs were flying
The only child remaining was his boy who saw
The whole thing from the kitchen window shocked in terror
Then the voice said I shall appear
You have proven yourself worthy, bring me the last life of your family
Called the boy out then came the light
There it was the apparition, reached out for his traumatized son
Free from sin you'll come with me
♪
The apparition, a messenger of the eternal scripture
Phantom of shine, disembodied and descent of heaven
The apparition, her appearance was so real
Without suspicion, all the prayers of the family were finally
The apparition changed form into a contorted creature
Held the child in its bosom and vanished in a laughter
The father now roams around the little flower garden
God's work he did it with pride
The final lock on the gate is now open
