Lyrics

(Verse 1)
I remember the light filtering through the glass
A golden era we thought would always last
Hope illuminated every step we took
Before the foundation trembled and shook
The altar is cold, the incense has turned to ash
A beautiful memory shattered in a sudden crash

(Chorus)
TAINTED SACRED GROUND!
THE SANCTUARY IS BURNING DOWN!
BETRAYED BY THE GODS WE MADE!
WATCHING THE PURE MEMORIES FADE!
DARKENED SANCTUARY!

(Verse 2)
What once was cherished is covered in decay
A sinister shadow chased the warmth away
The sanctuary walls are bleeding with the truth
The bitter poison of our stolen youth
I look at the ruins of what we used to praise
Just a ghost haunting the good old days

(Chorus)
TAINTED SACRED GROUND!
THE SANCTUARY IS BURNING DOWN!
BETRAYED BY THE GODS WE MADE!
WATCHING THE PURE MEMORIES FADE!
DARKENED SANCTUARY!

(Bridge)
Nothing stays pure! Nothing stays clean!
The ugliest truth behind the holy screen!
A haunting reminder of what we lost!
We paid the price, we paid the cost!
IT’S CORRUPTED!

(Chorus)
TAINTED SACRED GROUND!
THE SANCTUARY IS BURNING DOWN!
BETRAYED BY THE GODS WE MADE!
WATCHING THE PURE MEMORIES FADE!
DARKENED SANCTUARY!

(Outro)
Left in the dark...
LOST FOREVER!
