E E {intro} E E I come to you with strange fire, I make an offering of love E E The incense of my soul is burned by the fire in my blood E E I come with a softer answer to the questions that lie in your path E E I want to harbor you from the anger, find a refuge from the wrath E/A E/A This is a message, a message of love E/A E/A Love that moves from the inside out, love that never grows tired A E E I come to you (I come to you) with strange fire, fire Mercenaries of the shrine, now who are you to speak for god? With haughty eyes and lying tongues and hands that shed innocent blood Now who delivered you the power to interpret calvary?
