Prophecy branded into our minds

All must bow to the false

A way to keep us docile

To quell our very existence

Bread to echo these lies

To kneel in favor of deceit

Fight, for the absence

Of those that hold our will

Destroy the ancient ways

That fill seas with blood

Abandon that which abandons us

Fear the towering monolith

Or burn by holy fire

Agendas of gluttony

Serpents bear the cross

I'd rather burn

Than serve a foolish plight

I'd rather burn

Than sell away my soul

Blood soaked gold

Pointless slaughter in the name of control

The time must come when we awaken

Witness god, an empty throne

Grasp at crumbs

Left in your wake

Claw at ankles as your power fades

Face your end from those you betray

Beaten hounds you've led astray

Denial and sacrifice eat you alive

Choke on your words, the holy must die

Blood soaked gold

Pointless slaughter in the name of control

The time must come when we awaken

Witness god

An empty throne
