lyrics

There are those who seek fortune
There are those who wander the earth
searching for treasure
A never ending search
There are those encased in darkness
There are those with blinded eyes
Searching on their hands and feet now
They're feeling their demise

PreChorus: Well I say, let them see
The illuminators will set them free

Chorus: Stuck in a world
with a tragedy like this
A concrete wall between
The people and their bliss
The Illuminators
Will set them free
The Illuminators
Will set them free

Trying harder each time
We're digging in the soil
How do we find diamonds
In this wasteland so soiled
These walls are paper thin
And I can hear every word
Your death will surely come
Struck by your own sword

PreChorus

Chorus

In time they'll come, we'll learn
That we have been doing it wrong
In time, they'll go, we're lost
We must always remember their call

Chorus 2x
