One Drop Lyrics

In Strict Confidence One Drop

Last night
I stole a secret
From the sleeping gods
A recipe for tyranny
The human world forgot

I learned about a potion
That places in your hands
The strings of fate and motion
Of life to sudden end

One drop drowns your memory
In the lake of loss
[(One drop)]
One drop sells your sanity
And nails you to the cross
[(One drop)]

It places seven splinters
In your open eyes
Turns the world around you
Into a thousand lies
It takes away your breathing
And blows it to the wind
Along with your confession
"Father, I have sinned!"

One drop drowns your memory
In the lake of loss
[(One drop)]
One drop sells your sanity
And nails you to the cross
[(One drop)]
One drop bends you to my will
My will and my demand
[(One drop)]
One drop and the world stands still
And waits for my command

One drop drowns your memory
In the lake of loss
[(One drop)]
One drop sells your sanity
And nails you to the cross
[(One drop)]
One drop bends you to my will
My will and my demand
[(One drop)]
One drop and the world stands still
And waits for my command
