A Thousand Deaths

In excelsius benedictus Blessed angels hear our prayer Immortales resurrectus Let thy whisper dry our tears In excelsius benedictus Blessed angels hear our prayer Immortales resurrectus Let thy promise calm our fears Hosanna, hosanna, aeterna Holy we'll arrive forevermore Arabic chant Two lovers, two forces of love and hate I pull you, you pull me, we complicate Unlikely defendants in a lovers' trial And facing a world in complete denial From London to Aden, the stage is set Two cultures in conflict, love under threat And I'd breathe in fire and ash All for the sake of love And I'd die a thousand deaths All for the sake of love And I'd breathe in fire and ash All for the sake of love And I'd die a thousand deaths All for the sake of love Arabic chant The fires of the righteous will always burn And turn us on each other until we learn To harness the power of our distinction And throw off these shackles of bad religion One thousand and one nights change everything You are my scheherazade, I am your king In excelsius benedictus Immortalis lacunam In extremis abyss domus Introitus gloriam And I'd breathe in fire and ash All for the sake of love And I'd die a thousand deaths All for the sake of love And I'd breathe in fire and ash All for the sake of love And I'd die a thousand deaths All for the sake of love In excelsius benedictus Immortalis lacunam In extremis abyss domus Introitus gloriam The last hope for justice is fleeting fast Salvation, extinction, we're free at last In excelsis Immortalis In extremis And I'd die a thousand deaths All for the sake of love All for the sake of love In excelsius benedictus Blessed angels hear our prayer
