Deicide - Banished By Sin lyrics



Tracks



01. From Unknown Heights You Shall Fall

Lives sacrificed
Two for your god and one for your master
Faith in the dark
Heed to your maker's temptation

Master calls from the abyss
Martyr, no honor great as this

From unknown heights you shall fall
Leaping off as you seek salvation
Clever god beckoned the call
Descend forever, no end
From unknown heights you shall fall
From unknown heights you shall fall
The end you seek is not what meets you

Jump to your death
Pray on the way down the hole into torment
Blind by your faith
Welcome your grisly summation

Master calls from the abyss
Martyr, no honor great as this

From unknown heights you shall fall
Leaping off as you seek salvation
Clever god beckoned the call
Descend forever, no end
From unknown heights you shall fall
From unknown heights you shall fall
The god you seek is not who greets you

Chosen voices from within
Victim, servant to your sins
Master calls from the abyss
Martyr, no honor great as this

From unknown heights you shall fall
Knowing now you won't find salvation
There is no maker at all
Descend forever, no end
From unknown heights you shall fall
From unknown heights you shall fall
Your leap of faith has left you nowhere

02. Doomed To Die

Sentenced to die in this vessel of torture and pain
Death in the winning, the ending is always the same
Won't need forgiving or saving by Christ
Nothing more needs to be said
Out of this shadow of everyday life
When it's my turn to be dead, and gone, back where I belong
Blasphemy in death, satanize my soul

Doomed to die, for my sin, back in the darkness I go again
Doomed to die, in the end, no more confusion for what I am
Doomed to die, soon to see, where all this evil is taking me
Doomed to die, put to death, strangle your god with his crucifix

Walking alone by myself in this circle of death
Never to know inner peace when I take my last breath
No point in living, and keeping in time
Off to a world of unknown
With no salvation or hope to be lost
When it's my turn to be dead, and cold, abrogate my soul
Come to me in death, wait for you in hell

Doomed to die, for my sin, back in the darkness I go again
Doomed to die, in the end, no more confusion for what I am
Doomed to die, soon to see, where all this evil is taking me
Doomed to die, put to death, strangle your god with his crucifix

03. Sever The Tongue

Wrath of the holy
God is no more
Satan possess me
No savior reborn
Fuck your religion
Sever the tongue
Source of division
The cross of the righteous one

How dare you pray for me
Unwanted
Don't need your sympathy
Unneeded

Suffer the faithful
Tainted and stained
Bleed the forgiven
The Bible has been erased
God denounced
Son of the holy ghost
Beast of the depths of hell
Something you cannot see
The end of hypocrisy

Heaven will be destroyed
Conquered
End of God, sacrifice
Bloodshed

Sever the tongue
Sever the tongue of Christ
Never to speak
Never to speak God's name
Sever the tongue (Sever the tongue)
Sever the tongue of Christ (of Christ)
Never to speak (Never to speak)
Never to speak God's name again

The holy will be destroyed
Conquered
End of God, sacrifice
Bloodshed
Summon death, paralyzed
Destruction
Killing of mortal life
Dissension

Sever the tongue
Sever the tongue of Christ

Sever the tongue
Sever the tongue of Christ

04. Faithless

Reverse the words of the righteous
Devoted with body and soul
Become one with the deceiver
Absorb all creation
I am salvation incarnate
My essence will fill the void

Given the power of rapture
Sat at the right hand of God
Forgiving all transgressions
I am your shepherd now

Distance from the familiar
Salvation openly mocked
As I bend and break you
I am the faithless of God

Words brought from the divine
Bring forth judgement day
Message of a coming storm
Devotion the only way

Gather those who worship
Prepare to die
Dissect your wisdom
You and your Christ
Die

I am the faithless of God
Pay for my sins with my blood
I am the faithless of God

Time to dismantle the prophet
Sharing belief in his blood
I will see you all in Hell
Kick in the face of your Lord

Gather those who worship
Prepare to die
Dissect your wisdom
You and your Christ
Your Christ

I am the faithless of God
I am the faithless of God
I am the faithless of God
Lost is the souls of the dead

05. Bury The Cross...With Your Christ

Bad luck and superstition, all part of God religion
You can't come in unless you're saved
It's in his name we suffer, one death after another
And die to live another day

Buried in contradiction decaying crucifixions
The cross of Christ is in its grave

There was no premise in Jesus' death
No use in wondering why
Suffering souls left to bleed in distress
Distance themselves from his lie
Trampled and torn in this living abyss, losing its grip over time
Turning away from the meaning of it
Bury the cross with your Christ

Deny the unforgiven, reverse what god has written
The light of Christ has lost its way
A sign of revelation, diminished congregation
No one believes a word you say

Heaven unknown in a world of mistrust
Arrogance living a lie
Out of control in the midst of disgust
Standing alone in the light
Never reborn to the vile of sin
Reverence echoes and die
Lost and forgotten and failed to exist
Bury the cross with your Christ

The sword of indecision, entombed in symbolism
A memory of something said
Descend unto damnation, emphatic contemplation
Eternally and left for dead

Withering penance and no reason why
Bleeding from both of its eyes
Pleading for mercy and begging for death
Screaming at God for a sign
Fatal discretion, just simply unseen
Crawl through the darkness and die
Done with religion and calling it quits
Bury the cross with your Christ

06. Woke From God

Taunted by visions
Plagued by the gospel
Jesus unrisen
Christ, he's never there, and I'm
Trapped in his prison
Labeled "unwanted"
Left unforsaken
I wish I was dead

When I woke from god, I gave my heart to blasphemy
Burning in Hell ever more till the end of eternity

Curse of creation
Born to defy you
Symbol of Satan carved into my head, axed from my heart
Nothing to no one
Silent and empty
Withered and wicked
Die, never confess

And you came to me like prophecy and set me free
Freeing myself from the guilt of a world in agony
No longer bound by the words of a lord who canceled me
Severed my soul from his cross and embraced my destiny

07. Ritual Defied

Demon, I am
The prince of murderers
And the inventor of obscenity
Vomit, upon
Your book of holy words
I hold the power of the enemy

Sanctify me?
Failure

I defy your ritual
As I slip into your mind
Light will be cast out
I will flood your terra firma faith
As I rip you from your mind
Holy ghost be gone

Corpses, diffused
All lie with broken necks
Trademark of demonic assassin
Bastard, alas
You pious hypocrite
So blind you are to that you writhe in

Purify me?
Failure

I defy your ritual
As I slip into your mind
Light will be cast out
I will flood your terra firma faith
As I rip you from your mind
Holy ghost be gone

Legion, I am
The prince of murderers
And the inventor of obscenity
Vomit, upon
Your book of holy lies
Revoke the power of the enemy

Exorcise me?
Failure

I defy your ritual
As I slip into your mind
Light will be cast out
I will flood your terra firma faith
As I rip you from your mind
Holy ghost be gone
I defy your ritual
Light will be cast out

08. Failures Of Your Dying Lord

Hate, fire
Nothing to be saved
Fear, cower
Bow before His name
Pray, worship
Your Lord

Suffer unto me
Blessed disease
It takes the devil to believe in your sin
Chasing of the light
Deters the sight
No longer need to
Kneel before him

Burn, scour
The faith that remains
Reign, power
That which makes you bleed

Suffer unto me
Blessed disease
It takes the devil to believe in your sin
Chasing of the light
Deters the sight
No longer need to
Kneel before him
Pray or forgive
Bleed for the cross
Accept the loss

The failures of a dying God
Judgmental crimes of arrogance
To worship Him, you must ignore
The failures of your dying Lord

Suffer unto me
Blessed disease
It takes the devil to believe in your sin
Chasing of the light
Deters the sight
No longer need to
Kneel before him
Pray or forgive
Bleed for the cross
Accept the loss

The failures of a dying God
Judgmental crimes of arrogance
To worship Him, you must ignore
The failures of your dying Lord

09. Banished By Sin

Destined to darkness for what I believe
Sins of the devil empowering me
Holy excision that can't be explained
Burned by religion, I do not expect to be saved
Enslaved

Everything evil that lives in my heart
Banish my soul as I'll tear yours apart
Haunted by silence for what I perceive
Ghosted again by your god that has never been seen
Obscene

Wasting and rotting and waiting on death
Why in the world would I ever confess to your god?

He's dead, never around, trinity bleed
Hang on the cross of defeat
Last breath, father of lies, suffer again
Banished by sin
Screaming and burning and badgering god
Never know rest, and can never move on from this hell
In death, heaven above, never to be
Outside the realm of belief
Unblessed, evil inside, suffer again
Banished by sin

You are the reason for all of my rage
Up against nothing, unmoved by your faith
Lies and assumption, forever in doubt
Don't wait for me, I will never believe in your god
And rot

Wasting and rotting and waiting on death
Why in the world would I ever confess to your god?

He's dead, never around, trinity bleed
Hang on the cross of defeat
Last breath, father of lies, suffer again
Banished by sin
Here in death, heaven above, never to be
Outside the realm of belief
Unblessed, evil inside, suffer again
Banished by sin

10. A Trinity Of None

The phobic masses gathered
In the halls of hypocrisy
All the sheep prepared to die, human sacrifice
Hearts are full and minds are empty
When the dark comes slithering
As the blind lead the blind into misery

Don't look to me for mercy
I've killed more gods than men
A trinity of none
For whom my knee is bent

Mass hypnotic voices sputter
Behind the veil of obscurity
All the eyes aim to the wall, bloody crucifix
Driven by a force inhuman
Setting flame to the heretics
Power of persuasion for mental butchery

Don't look to me for mercy
I've killed more gods than men
A trinity of none
For whom my knee is bent

Wrath of god from the weak hands of men
All is lost by the weak minds of men

Power fanatical, fear on their side
A human sacrifice required for this night
A child, innocent, whose life we'll take
Thrown from the balcony to see the flame ignite

Contradiction be your master, in a cloak of serenity
Bend your faith as you see fit, feral bigotry
Half a man with twice the power as the worms eat his holy words
May the blade be your guide into righteousness

Don't look to me for mercy
I've killed more gods than men
A trinity of none
For whom my knee is bent

11. I Am I...A Curse Of Death

Dead to me, and you'll always be
Suffering, even in your dreams
I invoke my enemies and all who they behold
Never will I cease torturing their souls

I am I, and you are dead forever unto thee
Your worthless life of selfishness, perverse hypocrisy
Demonize the likes of me to get you in his grace
A life alone, no longer known, with no one left to hate

Not for me, rightfully expelled
Petty thieves, nothing left to sell
Staring blindly into death, unmoved by hands of faith
Choking on the truth, your history erased

I am I, and you are not a memory to me
And where you are is where you're at and never to be seen
It's no secret that your world is misery at best
Waiting on the moment when they lay your ass to rest

Dead, dead, dead, dead
Dead

You and he, bleeding on the cross
Unforeseen, bitterness and loss
Dead inside and left for death is all you have achieved
Strangled by deceit, permeate your souls

I am I, a curse of death, forever unto thee
And you will never know a life of happiness or peace
Coax the darkness for your death, and rob you of your dreams
And when you die, I hope your god will send you down to me

Die
Die

12. The Light Defeated

As the believers fall
And blood covers the earth
End of Christianity
Denying his rebirth
Destroying sacred temples
Cast down into the dead
Your meaningless existence
Insignificant

Reign, chaos, mass worship
Prepare the rise of Satan
End Heaven, gods befall
Angels, they reek of torture
Done with Christ
His book is bleeding
End his life
The light defeated

Gathering the godless
Ancient and forgotten
Seeking the creator
Total desecration
Servitude of Satan
Killing his creation

Religion is the answer
If the question is disease
A plague upon mankind
No one waiting when you die
Ending is upon them
No one waiting on his word
Servitude of Satan
In my time upon the earth

Done with Christ
End his life
The light defeated

Done with Christ
His book is bleeding
End his life
The light defeated
Done with Christ
His book is bleeding
End his life
The light defeated
