Title: "What Have We Done?" (Verse 1 - English) In the shadow of the steeples, where the angels once did cry We've drawn lines in the sand with the blood of those we deify Our hearts were once pure, our souls were once one But now we stand divided, with our guns and our guns alone (Chorus - Latin) Sancta bella, quid fecimus? In nomine patris, et filii, et spiritus sancti Perimus in tenebris, quae lucem non cognoscut Sancta bella, quid fecimus? (Verse 2 - English) The echoes of the prayers, now lost in the cries of war We've forgotten the love, that we swore to restore We marched under the banners of gods we claim to know But in the heat of battle, it's ourselves we've overthrown (Verse 3 - English) The children of the earth, they weep and they mourn For the fathers and brothers, never to be reborn And the mothers, their hearts breaking in silent despair For the sons they've lost in the holy lair (Chorus - Latin) Sancta bella, quid fecimus? In nomine patris, et filii, et spiritus sancti Perimus in tenebris, quae lucem non cognoscut Sancta bella, quid fecimus? (Bridge - English) Tell me, what is this power, that makes us so blind? To fight for a name, to leave our kin behind? Can we find our way back to the light of the dawn? Before the final battle, before we're all gone (Verse 4 - English) The ruins of our faith, scattered on the ground Where once stood churches, now only death is found Our hymns have turned to screams, our prayers to dust In the name of salvation, we've turned to rust (Chorus - Latin) Sancta bella, quid fecimus? In nomine patris, et filii, et spiritus sancti Perimus in tenebris, quae lucem non cognoscut Sancta bella, quid fecimus? (Outro - English) What have we done, in this holy quest of ours? But to destroy the beauty, that once did endure? The world is weeping, for the loss of its peace We've become the monsters, we once set to release (End Chorus - Latin) Sancta bella, quid fecimus? In nomine patris, et filii, et spiritus sancti Perimus in tenebris, quae lucem non cognoscut Sancta bella, quid fecimus? (Outro - English) Oh, what have we done?
