To see what lies beyond our sight nThe secrets robed in blackest night nThe things we dream but never see nCaged and blinded by the Beast nnFrom age to age it stalked the earthnThe apish scum of evil birthnUp from slime it has seen man crawlnIt waits to see our final fallnnThe Finger of Scorn, it points to us allnThe Finger of Scorn, it points to our fallnnBlack idols lie beneath the seanThey hold the secret to our destinynThe ancient tales are left to dienAnd leave mankind to wonder whynnThe Beast will rule the hearts of menn'Till mankind falls to ape againnAnd when our souls are stripped and tornnStill we face the Finger of Scorn
