(Intro) Bask in desires and indulge all you crave

Whilst we serpents writhe within the chalice of the depraved

Licking our lips as we gorge upon the flesh

Caste down from the cradle; from the slumbering nest

Behold how the venom that stoked Valhallas flame

Punishes the heavens with a biblical plague

Behold how the venom that stoked Valhallas flame

Punishes the heavens in a biblical rage

(Verse One) I am the thunder, the lightening and the rain

And my mission is to purify your sodden soils again

Flee to the mountains if it gives you piece of mind

When what you really need is a miracle of some kind

(Chorus) Rise! Rise! On the Night of the Long Knives!

(Verse Two) I am the tempest, the whirlwind and the storm

Look deep into my eye and remember you were warned

By my prophets message! It is written in your palm

So woe betide the fool who does not fear the ancient calm

Rise! Rise! On the Night of the Long Knives!

For forty days and forty nights

Waves tossed our little freight with feverish chaste spite

Through the ocean, brimstone potions; brewed to ensure your devotion

Rise! Rise! On the Night of the Long Knives

On the floor; against the wall

We were buggered as we prayed upon all fours

By a stranger that some call father; all his bastards have been martyred

Rise! Rise! On the Night of the Long Knives

Whats become of all your divine mercy?

Daddy, when will you not deem us dirty?

All this dread is merely token as our souls have languished broken

Rise! Rise! On the Night of the Long Knives

Night of the Long Knives! You cant swim against the rich harvest tides! Now Pour!

The floods of redemption will silence your cries!

(Verse Three) Im your voice of reason, Im your deliverance

Your past, your present and your future

I, the ebony prince

Lay your burden down before me, I know what you rue

The day you should have seized the beasts

And reared them two by two

Rise! Rise! On the Night of the Long Knives!
