Put them to the Torch

Open up your veins in worship to chaos
Let the blood flow in glorious red
Set yourself on fire in the middle of a church
Burn yourself and the temple for Satan
Walk in the footsteps of madness
Summoning the horde of the ancient darkness
Let the oppressors know there will be no penance
Our father Lucifer, poison their water
Our lord Belial, bring upon them suffering
Our guide Judas, show them betrayal
Our sword Sathanus, bring the fires of hell
Gouge out the eyes of the politicians
For their lack of any sort of foresight
Make their funeral pyre from Bibles
And then throw them screaming into it
Walk in the footsteps of madness
Summoning the horde of the ancient darkness
We will let the fathers of greed and lies
Know painful howling death

Forgotten memories buried deep
In unconscious places in the dark
Long ago passed on from this world
Their legacies, slowly fading away
Silhouettes in the distant past
Of such powerful understanding and strength
Empty hollow shells remain standing
Silent in their untold secrets
Ancient societies crushed in their prime
And we still don’t know why
Cataclysmic destruction
Raging fire for days without end
And the power to still oceans
In the hands of children who think themselves gods
The evidence of higher ancient knowledge
Carved upon the world so long ago
So people pray to their empire
And they beg for their safety
But the illusion is a fleeting one
Beautiful ways of life have all burned to ash
Walls crumble, books decay and people die
Concepts of thought distort from through inferior minds
If we are to learn anything from the past
It’s that everything turns to ruin in the end

As the Gods Fell

And so the gods fell
In fury and wrath
An event never prophecied
In all the ages
And man without cause
To be destroyed with anger
As the gods fell
So did the world
And man without cause
To be destroyed with anger
As the gods fell
So did the world
And through the fire
Our world burning
The screams of the dying
Fill the skies
The gods ignored
In firey anger
Reap their savage way
Across the world
The gods angered
Never ignored again
Reap their savage way
Across the world

Midnight

There was no hope for you
I couldn't help, no matter how hard I tried
Your wounds were too severe, my love lost
It was so cold that night, you were in pain for so long
I died with you at midnight
You were in pain that I tried to stop
They wouldn't let me, they just fed you drugs
I wanted to end your suffering
I died with you at midnight
You bled for days with no reprieve
Your suffering was mine too
My love for you would never end
I died with you at midnight
And as you slipped away, I heard your final breath catch
Only to be replaced by the noise of the wind
This loss unbearable, I try to get up and I can't
I died with you at midnight
Now and forever, you will always be missed
I will never forget you

Heretic
04:09

Indoctrinated from the cradle, but the words hold no resonance
Warping perspective to crave to hold onto a fictional ideal
Claiming selfless commitment to world domination, fulfilling divine mandate
Bent to the anvil, nose to the grind, contentment through submission
I rise, under whip and under stone
I rise, liars words is all they have
I rise, fires of hell burning within me
I rise, demons of hell shall hear
Dark acts in cold dark places
Cold steel, shivering in the blackness
The unhinging living terror traveling through darkness
To be your undoing, to be your fall
I will never see the world through those eyes again
Peer into the darkness and the dark looks back at you
You may see yourself for what you really are
Telling yourself over and over you’re something you’re not
