The Expulsion (Lyrics)

trembling, trepidation - the sentence uttered into stone now cast congregation - gathered close to witness judgment passed unrepentant - the wanderer accepts his end, yet scornful unrelenting - a passion that no soul could break nor bend eight years in the darkness - tortured, confined and alone led to the palace - the word handed down from the throne above the roaring masses - the flames now cast toward the sky his final performance: to shun the cross he’d forever deny the shadow of ideas stands to loom - the cold and black embers warm the tomb
