[Verse] In the garden where shadows creep A serpent whispers promises deep Fruit of knowledge Sweet but vile Temptation dressed in a serpent's smile [Chorus] The bite The fall The curse The flame Innocence lost And we bear the blame Adam and Eve What have you done The war began with the setting sun [Verse 2] Dust to dust The ground now screams Echoes of Eden haunt our dreams Hands that tilled now drip with blood Paradise drowned in a crimson flood [Prechorus] But mercy calls Through thorn and strife A second Adam To bring us life [Breakdown] Bite the fruit Feel the sting Chains of death start tightening Ashes rise Angels weep Wake the dead From endless sleep [Bridge] Thorns pierce the brow of the chosen one A garden lost A garden won East of Eden We’re cast away But grace is born through judgment’s day
