Tekster: Within Temptation. Mother Earth. Deceiver Of Fools.

He feeds on fear, he feeds on pain
He rules again
If for all he cares he will guide
The faith again

Our light in the darkness
Is too small to see
There's always a sparkle of hope
If you just believe

He told the tale so many times
About the dream not meant to be
In a world of the free
(He plays with your mind)

As faith for the future faded fast
He grows strong with their displeasure
It sets him free

Deceiver of hearts
Deceiver of fools
He rules with fear

Deceiver of hopes
Deceiver of fools
He rules again

He feeds on fear, poisons the truth
To gain their faith to lead the way
To a world of decay
(He rules your heart)

He'll sell your soul to the grave
Without a hesitation to make
He belongs to the dark

Deceiver of hearts
Deceiver of fools
He rules with fear

Deceiver of hopes
Deceiver of fools
He rules again

Please awake and see the truth
He can only be if you believe what he tells you
Remember who you are, what you stand for
There will always be a way

Deceiver of hearts
Deceiver of fools
He rules with fear

Deceiver of hopes
Deceiver of fools
He rules again

In my heart there is a place
In my heart there is a trace
Of a small fire burning

A sheltering ray shines through this night
Although it's small it's bright
But darkness is lurking

He will sell your soul
To bitterness and cold
Oh fear him

Deceiver of hearts
Deceiver of fools
He rules with fear

Deceiver of hopes
Deceiver of fools
Shall he rule again?
