"Mother Of All Gods" lyrics

Late at night, when the sky is clear
I'm like the darkest light and all will disappear
When nights turn cold, death resets its frontier
Here comes the darkness, behold the source of all your fear

Men fear death as children fear to go in the dark and as that natural fear in children is increased with tales, so is the other

Death is an evil, the gods have so judged
Had it been good, they would all have died

Wonder is the foundation of human intelligence
Inquiry the progress, ignorance the end

Fear is the mother of all gods
Fear is the mother of all gods

Religion converts despair
Which succumbs into resignation
Which then submits
Destroying all your dreams

Hope is the worst of the evils
It prolongs the torment of man
Devoid of any logic, destroying all his needs
Your enemy is fear crawling from within
We evolve as copies of other imitations
Umbilically attached to a collective insanity

Fear is the mother of all your gods

To our ashes, glory will come too late
Fear is the mother of all gods

Religion glorifies the dogma of searching in a dark
Cellar at midnight for a black cat that isn't there

Late at night, when we grow sincere
I'm like the darkest light and all will disappear
When nights turn cold, estranging all your hopes
In the darkness, untold, I'll keep your secrets too
All gods shall fall, in distrust of merits
Once we'll awaken they will cease to exist
