The Interlude by Pagan Altar Lyrics

A World stripped of its color
Devoid of love and hate
There's no one left to stand
Before St. Peter's pearly gates
To see the chaos man has wrought
Brings havoc to his brain
The few that's left on judgment day
Have been acquitted as insane!

A silent World of shapeless things
Of torn and twisted form
Man sits amid the wreckage
Waiting vainly for the dawn
The glory of man has come and gone
A broken shattered dream
The only sound to rent the air
Is a stifled choking scream!

Blindness follows darkness man
Awaits impending doom
His mind lies dead, to arise no more
No awakening from the gloom
Lost amid the twilight world
Of never ending night
He needs no more his senses
Least of all he needs his sight!
The chariots of fire rode
Roughshod through the World
Men of vision stood ridiculed
Seen but never heard!
Cries of disillusionment
Drowned by mans desire
The need for mass destruction
Fuelled the raging fire!
