The band's last single performed live, ft. guest vocalist Andrea Garber, a cover version of the Italian Opera song by Giovanni Legrenzi (1626-1690).
lyrics
What fierce power
[has] this winged god
who by force of punishments should make himself adored! make himself adored!
who by force of punishments should make himself adored
and nevertheless in [my] adoration
the traitorous god
made me idolize a lovely face
made me idolize a lovely face
What fierce power
[has] this winged god
who by force of punishments should make himself adored! make himself adored!
who by force of punishments should make himself adored
what a cruel destiny
that a blind child [still]
with a mouth of [mother's] milk should make him esteemed! make him esteemed!
with a mouth of [mother's] milk should make him esteemed
but this tyrant
with barbarous deception
entering through [my] eyes made me sigh
entering through [my] eyes made me sigh
what a cruel destiny
that a blind child [still]
with a mouth of [mother's] milk should make him esteemed! make him esteemed!

Che fiero costume
D'aligero nume,
Che a forza di pene si faccia adorar! si faccia adorar!
Che a forza di pene si faccia adorar!
E pur nell' ardore
Il dio traditore
Un vago sembiante mi fe' idolatrar.
Un vago sembiante mi fe' idolatrar.
Che fiero costume
D'aligero nume,
Che a forza di pene si faccia adorar! si faccia adorar!
Che a forza di pene si faccia adorar!
Che crudo destino
Che un cieco bambino
Con bocca di latte si faccia stimar! si faccia stimar!
Con bocca di latte si faccia stimar!
Ma questo tiranno
Con barbaro inganno,
Entrando per gli occhi, mi fe' sospirar!
Entrando per gli occhi, mi fe' sospirar!
Che crudo destino
Che un cieco bambino
Con bocca di latte si faccia stimar! si faccia stimar!
Con bocca di latte si faccia stimar!
