lyrics

Mind over matter
The powers of delusion
Create the grandest illusion
Mind - does it matter?
The delusion is the power
Deceiving hour after hour
The eye is blinded by the beholder
No more looking back over your shoulder
Like wings of a bat they take flight
The blind lead the blind in the broad daylight
Mind over matter
The elements of confusion
Create the grandest illusion
Mind - does it matter?
This plague will devour
Consuming hour after hour (hour after hour)
Ritual - we are gathered here today
Ritual - conjuring the spirits led astray
Ritual - upon the altar we will pray
Ritual - evoking spirits here to stay
Mind over matter
The powers of delusion
Create the grandest illusion
Mind - does it matter?
The delusion is the power
Deceiving hour after hour
The eye is blinded by the beholder
No more looking back over your shoulder
Like wings of a bat they take flight
The blind lead the blind in the pale moonlight
Ritual - we are gathered here today
Ritual - conjuring the spirits led astray
Ritual - we are darkness, out of sight
Ritual - summoning spirits in the night
The eye is blinded by the beholder
No more looking back over your shoulder
Like wings of a bat they take flight
The blind lead the blind every day and night
Ritual - we are gathered here today
Ritual - invoking spirits here to stay
Ritual - in the darkness, out of sight
Ritual - summoning spirits in the night
Ritual - Ritual - Ritual - Ritual
