Lyrics
Weaving a thread round your heart and your soul Deceiving your eyes and delaying your goal Ships in the night when they pass out of sight Deliver their cargo of earthly delights To the women and children, the souls of the dead I've opened their book and no mercy is shed You want forgiveness and you want it cheap I don't give redemption rewards for the meek Suffering evil when you pay the price of fame There isn't a god to save you if you don't save yourself You can't blame a madman if you go insane Give me the strength so I carry on [Chorus:] Trapped in the web - but I cut the threads Show you the gates of tomorrow Trapped in the web - no mercy is shed Show you the gates of tomorrow Trapped in the web - slaves to the dead Show you the gates of tomorrow Trapped in the web - but I cut the threads Show you the gates of tomorrow [Repeat 3rd verse, chorus]
