Embers Of

Waste no darkness, we have the after light Wooden crosses, pyres immaculate glow 100 years standing (Yet) fallen in one night Bible means nothing, empty words of dead men Hail! Hail! Fire! Fire! In seconds, structure engulfed Red cinders kiss the black veil, crumbled steeple falls to hell New dawn approaching and the smoke has cleared Sundays are dead and the serpent is near Gore filled gospels, stench filled nostrils With lies and malice he stacks the pews Mocking the sermons, killing the vermin Antioch burns tonight We watch the fire and we rejoice For it is our choice for he has no voice Were only heathens in this night Gazing upon unholy light Terror jackals ripping prey, once the flock was lead astray Never one to obey, I control my fate Holy man upon his knees begging for forgiveness please Revelations plays out mentally Smoldering salvation, embers fall on my tongue Retribution's price is divine Promised land you promised me the flaming fields of prophecy Set ablaze your sanctuary Laying to waste your symbol of lies Upon the cross is where your religion can die Unanswered prayers because no one can hear your cries Contorting truths for the hope of an afterlife Its burning down Terror jackals ripping prey, once the flock was lead astray Never one to obey, I control my fate Holy man upon his knees begging for forgiveness please Revelations plays out mentally Smoldering salvation, embers fall on my tongue Retribution's price is divine Promised land you promised me the flaming fields of prophecy Set ablaze your sanctuary Cleansing the earth of your worthless existence You feel the fires from hell absolve your pestilence We've endured centuries of keeping the plebeians ignorant Receiving gifts of the infernal sacrament Flesh to ash, seared in gas Bodies impaled by the stained glass Free at last Will you repent as you pass Embers of the last chapel Consecrated as it falls Embers of the last chapel Through the carnage you shall crawl Fall
