Open your mouth boy
Just to swallow your teeth I will not pay the price for your self-inflicted grief My meekness lies there shivering and raped Trembling prophet Anointed wrath of God incarnate Cutting and tearing dissection Strangled and hanging before me Weeping and screaming become you Carry out your suffering Raise your fist boy to bring upon your demise Never had a clue what waited behind these eyes Your body torn apart You could not escape Trembling prophet Anointed wrath of God incarnate Cutting and tearing dissection Strangled and hanging before me Weeping and screaming become you Carry out your suffering Inspiration from your damnation Your breath blackens my lungs You marked the line to guide my first incision Breath of the black muse... Inspiration from your damnation Your breath blackens my lungs 02. The Rising End (The First Prophecy)
Bombs rain down like heaven's tears
The earth shall die and disappear And today we wish the sky was grey For now they're just black and empty Ripped and torn from inside out Things too dark to think about No miracles, no bleeding hands God has parted... Bombs rain down like heaven's tears The earth shall die and disappear And today we wish the sky was grey For now they're just black and empty And when the end she comes Rains down on everyone fire from the sky And when the end she rides Breathing out suicide, life and death are one As a flame burns to touch the sky So it shall be with man's cry And this night all will pass away And this night we shall die as one And when the end she comes Rains down on everyone fire from the sky And when the end she rides Breathing out suicide, life and death are one 03. The Last Revelation (The Last Prophecy)
Tthere were none at his left hand
No man amongst his army The earth has ripped herself open And birthed from her wounds thick black clouds which covered the earth It tears I see blood in the air I taste blood in the air Dissected from heaven Cut and stripped of her skin We let it begin descending from heaven An all-consuming cancer Reaching to repent We shall taste hate in its purest form Reaching out for nothing Choking on our words While we hold our children It tears I see blood in the air I taste blood in the air Dissected from heaven Cut and stripped of her skin We let it begin descending from heaven No cradle, no son A mother of none It tears I see blood in the air I taste blood in the air Dissected from heaven Cut and stripped of her skin We let it begin descending from heaven 04. The Last Song From Zion
His shadow floats upon the earth
Casting a song from the north upon the earth Yeashua weeps a Zion song Thy will of man My kingdom gone You place all your hatred upon my throne Your hands from your own path Curse the one that has made you I see Cain in all your eyes. I am laying down to go to sleep forever I do not hide my face in shame at all I do not cower before your blade This is what your black hearts pray. Time moves as slow as the oceans tide Neon explosion in the haggard sky No sun shall set Lest we forget Man's will be done. I am laying down to go to sleep forever I do not hide my face in shame at all I do not cower before your blade This is what your black hearts pray. The last lamb, The last hope, The last song from Zion. 05. Live... From The Funeral Of God
Live from the funeral of God
This is the day you've awaited, sponsored and celebrated He has answered your prayers Corpses have piled up with your riches They have spilled over onto the earth We spit and wear our fear like masks Everything is locked into a form Interrupt the feed It's closing in... The sky is so dark Are men no worse than demons? Are armies not thirsty for blood? The desire of their hearts has been met Eons and eons, decades of liars Drunk with power atop a mountain of corpses Their arms and legs fail and they crawl like serpents To address those who are mourning Live from the funeral of God It's closing in... The sky is so dark There is no reason to be afraid Everything is under control We shall miss him 06. The Lesser Lights Of Heaven
The lesser lights of heaven are burning towards a dream
The eyes of mother bleeding Cast their children to the sea The lesser lights of heaven are screaming in our mind Listening to the chorus So divine and unkind The lesser lights of heaven are burning for their son Praying for the presence That birthed them into one The lesser lights of heaven Their bodies but a flame A sky that knows no distance A cut that feels no pain The lesser lights of heaven are bending towards your will Cutting through the person Who would rather die than kill The lesser lights of heaven cast crowns before your throne Dissipate into nothing We truly are alone The lesser lights of heaven are burning for their son Praying for the presence That birthed them into one The lesser lights of heaven Their bodies but a flame A sky that knows no distance A cut that feels no pain Can we live through this? The lesser lights of heaven are burning towards a dream 07. In Times Gone Past
I see it in your eyes
The tearing in your heart As I awaken I learn first First of dying and lying inside the ground forgotten I learn of love I learn of terror I feel the curse inside my body My God, my God Why have you forsaken me and put this curse inside my body We live within a curse and within the divine We're born and raised to work And then grow old and die in our golden time Strange, cut and burnt then thrown into the tide I have lived and died Lie beneath the ground, ascend into the sky I feel the earth spinning slow And winding down with the sun I feel the curse inside my body Running through my veins into my mind My God, my God Why have you forsaken me and put this curse inside my body We live within a curse and within the divine We're born and raised to work And then grow old and die in our golden time Strange, cut and burnt then thrown into the tide I have lived and died Lie beneath the ground, ascend into the sky I see it in your eyes The tearing in your heart 08. Praise The War Machine
The death of the omega pilots the war machine
We shall destroy the earth Rebuild it None shall inherit it Blood turned into fire Made to drink like wine Pile up the countless corpses and on them we shall dine We praise you, war machine You've come to set us free Run us through your jaws Carry us off in your claws Cut away body from soul A slave freed from his master Closing the spirit's eye to embrace this earthly tie We praise you, war machine You've come to set us free Run us through your jaws Carry us off in your claws 666, The number of man brought upon by man The earth it shall burn bright tonight in our eyes The earth it shall burn right into our eye on this very night Praise the war machine Burn tonight The earth it shall burn right into our eye on this very night Praise the war machine Praise the war machine Burn tonight 09. Truly, Truly This Is The End
They say death is an open door
Into another room Within the city of the dead Our new kingdom They say we walk like dreams Sharing the same breath Seeing through the same eyes A collective spirit As we pray on his grave our words fall and decay They say the earth it gives no peace Nor does it take away We all survive the grave Unfortunate eternal They say that in times past A king walked in the sky Until dethroned by man Tribe of judas As we pray on his grave our words fall and decay Truly, truly, this is the end It's not the same I'm plagued with pain and I can't let go This is the end 10. I Lay Sleepless In My Grave
Instrumental
11. Psalm Of The City Of The Dead
As we wait here for a sign
We are greeted by the end of time These streets aren't paved with gold You are my everything My soul is growing cold |
