Lyrics

[Iesu, Rex amirabilis]

I still remember the world
From the eyes of a child
Slowly those feelings
Were clouded by what I know now

Where has my heart gone?
An uneven trade for the real world
Oh! I, I want to go back to
Believing in everything
And knowing nothing at all

I still remember the sun
Always warm on my back
Somehow it seems colder now

Where has my heart gone?
Trapped in the eyes of a stranger
Oh! I, I want to go back to
Believing in everything

[Iesu, Rex amirabilis]
[et triumphator nobilis]
[dulcedo ineffabilis]
[ineffabilis] [totus desiderabilis]

As the years pass by before my face
[totus desiderabilis]
As wars rage before me
Finding myself in these last days of existence
This parasite inside me I forced it out
In the darkness of the storm
[Iesu, Rex amirabilis]
Lies an evil
But it's me

Where has my heart gone?
An uneven trade for the real world
Oh! I, I want to go back to
Believing in everything

Oh! Where? Where has my heart gone?
Trapped in the eyes of a stranger
Oh! I, I want to go back to
Believing in everything

I still remember

[Iesu, Rex amirabilis]
