East of Eden - Remastered

I was told this in a distant land
 Where tortured souls have to fight together in anguish
 
 And the scenes of the show are of a cruel and violent nature
 ♪
 Scenes of pain and cruelty are there to be seen
 The arena, the town, the place was set for all to watch and see
 I was told this in a distant land
 Where the oppressor ruled with an iron hand
 And the mission of saddened complacency
 Left cold and emotionless by history
 
 Scenes of pain and cruelty are there to be seen
 All the while I should have known it was you killing me
 ♪
 Somewhere in East of Eden, the designs will never change
 Vented through other's fear, the world stops at the end of the hall
 We watch the life force fade away
 And that's the price we shall have to pay
 (Once you are dead, how could the children have known?)
