Reach out for the light lyrics

[Gabriel]

Lord above - why don't you tell me

why I'm here in agony?

I've been serving, I've been praying

now I'm caught in misery.

I've been praised by friar Jakob,

I misused his confidence.

Cheated by this work of evil -

feigning Anna's innocence.

Oh what have I done?

So many ways lead to the fallen one,

Lucifer, fallen light...

Oh what have I done?

What is going on?

We should bring salvation,

not give in to his temptation - no!

Read and preach the holy world

and no forbidden lies that hurt.

I remember words of "seven".

Set me bree - sanity!

[Lugaid]

Reach out for the light

far beyond confines.

You have read the magic lines

leading to the light in your mind...

[Gabriel]

What is right and what is wrong now?

Is it a trial of paradise?

Is anna a witch or do they stick to an error?

What's the book and the seal inside?

Am I a cleric or maybe a sinner?

Unbeliever? Renegade?

Was it the devil who led me to "seven"?

Oh redeemer is it all too late?

Oh, what have I done?

I have been led by the smelling one,

Lucifer, fallen light...

Tell me stranger, what have I done?

Oh what's going on?

We should bring salvation,

not give in to his temptation - no!

Read and preach the holy world

and no forbidden lies that hurt.

I remember words of "seven".

Set me free - sanity!

[Lugaid]

Reach out for the light

far beyond confines.

You have read the magic lines

leading to the light in your mind...

[Gabriel]

In your mind?
