Terrible Day Of The Lord
03:21
|
|||
That terrible day of the Lord is near
Swiftly it comes
A day of bitter tears
A day when even strong men will cry out
It will be a day when the Lord’s anger is poured out
A day of terrible distress and anguish
A day of ruin and desolation
A day of darkness and gloom
A day of clouds and blackness
A day of trumpet calls and battle cries
Down go the walled cities and the strongest battlements
Because you have sinned against the Lord
I will make you grope around like the blind
Your blood will be poured into the dust
And your bodies will lie rotting on the ground
Your silver and gold will not save you on that day of the Lord’s anger
For the whole land will be devoured by the fire of his jealousy
He will make a terrifying end of all the people on earth

Burn
04:06
|

A darkness burns through your brain
As we start to lose our minds
You stoke the fire with gasoline
Speaking all of your lies
Ignorance begets violence
Yet the truth don’t set us free
We’re just an obnoxious fuse
Lit by your apathy
Where there’s smoke well there must be fire
We look to the sky as the earth slowly turns
We’re stuck in the middle while you play your fiddle
And you just watch as the world starts to burn
You promised streets of gold
With your shined out silver tongue
We still keep our hope
Though the fumes fill up our lungs
And all that will be left
After you torch all our souls
Are the ashes of a blackened world
Left in your afterglow
Where there’s smoke well there must be fire
We look to the sky as the earth slowly turns
We’re stuck in the middle while you play your fiddle
And you just watch as the world starts to burn
As the world starts to burn
As the world starts to burn
As the world starts to burn
Where there’s smoke well there must be fire
We look to the sky as the earth slowly turns
We’re stuck in the middle while you play your fiddle
And you just watch as the world starts to burn
As the world starts to burn
As the world starts to burn
As the world starts to burn
Burn

Empty Kingdom
04:04
|
|||
Nothing to see
No peace anymore
Your self righteous speech
Leads to perpetual war
You set it up just to watch it fall
When everything’s gone you’ll have it all
A castigated crown of thorns
In your empty kingdom
You’re the chosen one
You’re telling lies
When you’re taking breaths
The cost of your throne were
Millions of deaths
You set it up just to watch it fall
When everything’s gone you’ll have it all
A castigated crown of thorns
In your empty kingdom
You’re the chosen one
Arrogant isolation
Ignorant violation
Innocent annihilation
Complete domination
Your empire’s growing colder
Bought by the life of another dead soldier
You set it up just to watch it fall
When everything’s gone you’ll have it all
A castigated crown of thorns
In your empty kingdom
You’re the chosen one
You’re the chosen one
Chosen one
In your empty kingdom
You’re the chosen one

The Sin-Eater
07:26
|

They’ve all come to me before
They’ll all still come to me
So don’t be afraid
I’ve come to take your pain away
Just follow me
And I’ll show you eternity
There is another way
A back door into heaven’s gate
So don’t be afraid
I’ve come to take your pain away
Been here since the dawn of time
Take what you don’t want and make it mine
A last chance healer for a wicked mind
Cause I’ll eat your sins before you die
Before you die
I’ve set many free before
I’ll set many more free
Don’t worry about a thing
Once you hear all those angel’s sing
I’m the savior that you seek
To provide the redemption you need
So don’t be afraid
I’ve come to take your pain away
Been here since the dawn of time
Take what you don’t want and make it mine
A last chance healer for a wicked mind
Cause I’ll eat your sins before you die
Before you die
Before you
Been here since the dawn of time
Take what you don’t want and make it mine
A last chance healer for a wicked mind
Cause I’ll eat your sins before you die
Before you die
Before you die

A Million Miles Away
04:18
|
|||
The pale horse rides again
Collecting souls throughout the land
There’s no time to repent
I’ve got to get out while I can
Let the holy water wash over me
As I run across the borderline
It’s the free air that I want to breathe
I just pray that I can stay
A million miles away
The Jaguar Gods are real
And I feel for those left behind
Though he broke the seventh seal
My Armageddon is to stay alive
Let the holy water wash over me
As I crawl across that borderline
Mother Mary can you hear my plea
I just pray that I can stay
A million miles away
A million miles away
Let the holy water wash over me
I am far beyond that borderline
It’s the free air that feels great to breathe
I just pray they’ll let me stay
A million miles away
A million miles away
A million miles away

All The Same
04:23
|

I ain't got no friends
Except the voices inside my head
They keep telling me that this make believe
World does not exist
But I'm doing my best
To keep the water below my chin
It may recede, but it's hard to breathe
When that tide rises again
It’s all the same
Nothing will ever change
Blue or red alive or dead
It’s all the same to me
So much is said
By peddlers of revilement
Their illusion of choice
Takes away our voice
Til we’re silenced in the end
It’s all the same
Nothing will ever change
Blue or red alive or dead
It’s all the same to me
It’s all the same
Nothing will ever change
Blue or red alive or dead
It’s all the same to me
It’s all the same
Nothing will ever change
Blue or red alive or dead
It’s all the same to me

Lost Hope
06:46
|
|||
The devil in my head just told me to let go
Said your light is going dark and so is your soul
In the garden is where I felt you turned your back
Took the path of deceit & vain and now there ain’t no going back
I bare witness to false popes
By pretending to find ghosts
It's forgiveness I need the most
Cause I’m descending with lost hope
There's no prayer that I can pray before I’m in the ground
And there's nothing that can turn my fate around
Falling to my knees I’m reaching to the sky
The pit opens for me the flames consume my cries
I bare witness to false popes
By pretending to find ghosts
And it’s forgiveness that I need the most
As I’m descending with lost hope
I chose no fate and now it’s too late
I chose no faith and Satan he smiles and waits
