All for Gold Songtext

Pape Satan
Pape Satan, Aleppe
Pape Satan

Pape Satan
Pape Satan, Aleppe
Pape Satan

Don't let your fear defeat you
For whatever power he has
He cannot stray you from your path
He will not harm you, stay aside

Be silent, oh cursed wolf
Go let your rage feed on yourself!
His journey is willed on high, so fly away, gone!

Here saw I people, more than elsewhere, many
On one side and the other, this dark place was plenty
With great howls and rolling weights by force of chest
They suffered, they cried as they clashed with the rest


And so when they hit the other, their weights roll back
And crying, demanding, they shout at the dark
WHY DO YOU HOARD? said one, WHY DO YOU SQUANDER?
The other replying, and both red in anger

And turning their stone as no answer is found
They begin to wander the other way around
Crying and crying this their chant of scorn
I couldn't but feel like my own heart was torn

Here we cry we all know why we never care to stop
All in life is keeping, thrive, and gather even more
Here we cry we all know why we never care to stop
All in life is spending, buying, wasting for our cause

I've been trying to recognize
All those souls in the eastern side
Now their tonsures reveal they're clergymen
Shame on them!

Here we cry we all know why we never care to stop
All in life is keeping, thrive, and gather even more
Here we cry we all know why we never care to stop
All in life is spending, buying, wasting for our cause

All for gold
We are sold


Here we cry we all know why we never care to stop
All in life is keeping, thrive, and gather even more
Here we cry we all know why we never care to stop
All in life is spending, buying, wasting for our cause

And then we so descend towards a greater sorrow
For every star that rose when I first move is setting now
We crossed the circle to the other shore to reach a flow
A darkenend stream which gives birth to a swamp so here we come,
Styx
