Beheaded - Evil Be To Him Who Evil Seeks

The atrocity is faceless
Yet its sight will freeze your eyes
Strip you down from your senses
Leaving you paralyzed

Behold in the great nothing
The reflection of a man
In all his meaningless existence
As into the abyss he descends
You face a greater terror
Elating the dead
There is no god you can turn to now
Your faith in him was futile in the end

A greater terror

The clock is ticking for the end is nigh
Trapped in an hourglass, you scream as you die
Bearing the scythe
He will be with you soon
The reaper of souls
Harbinger of doom
Harvester of death
The warrior who kills
All children of men
To tear you limb from limb

You face a greater terror

Join the eater of worlds in his abhorred empire
Abandon hope
Perish into the fires
Your burning ashes let him consume
Body and soul
Stillborn in the devil's womb
Emancipation from religious trance
De-fleshing of the human form
Unholy decadence

You face a greater terror

The atrocity is faceless
The horror is relentless
The terror is ageless
It's death in all its greatness

A greater terror

God's eyes on the righteous
His ears inclined to prayer
For man must turn away
In pursuit of peace, succumb to fear

Evil, evil
Evil be to him who evil seeks

To he who fosters rebellion
Dastardly against God
A messenger of death
Shall be sent against them
To make the sun rise on both good and evil
And send rain to the just and the unjust
Hast thou
Who is considered God's servant
A perfect and upright man
To be destroyed without cause

Evil, evil

Evil, evil
Evil be to him who evil seeks
Evil, evil
Evil be to him who evil seeks
Be to him who evil seeks
Be to him who evil seeks

God's eyes on the righteous
He will not hear my prayers
For I'll never turn away
To pursue peace or succumb to fear
I foster rebellion
Insolently against God
Any messenger of death
Shall be dealt with by the sword

Evil I seek
Evil I seek
Evil I seek
Evil

From the fire where it all began
Into the fire where it all shall end

The charring pyre
A sea of flames
The burning ashes of a haunting blaze
The scintillations induce you to hallucinate
Semblances of infernal being appear in smoke and wicked shapes

Souls cast into a blazing furnace
Drawing near to their second death
Wafting through a fiery lake to the promised land of punishment
Bodies reduced to ashes from the fire where it all began
From the fire where it all began

From the fire where it all began
Into the fire where it all shall end

Cowards, idolators
Practitioners of the magic arts
Worshipers of the image
Followers of the black cult
Weeping, gnashing teeth
Conflagration, incessant dread
Liars, the wicked ones
On to the realm of the dead
On to the realm of the dead
On to the realm of the dead
On to the realm of the dead
On to the realm of the dead

The ceremony of ancient fire
The awakening of the worlds
Purification
A tribal mantra
The blades are sharp and the flames ravenous
Baptism through fire
Baptism through fire
Baptism through fire

Soul dead in a blazing furnace
This is the second death
Burning lava, fiery lake
Swim in the sea of punishment

From the fire where it all began
Into the fire where it all shall end
From the fire where it all began
Into the fire where it all shall end

Your faith and your god have failed you
You're alone with nothing left
From a lifetime of misery now spiraling towards the end
Desperate cries for salvation
Desolate screams go unheard
You become one with the nothing
This is your end

The purging of God
To accede to purification
Ousting the wrought
The only path to redemption

There's no reason for your existence
You'll barely be a memory
Which in time will fade away to be forgotten as if you had never been
To become not past nor future
Not present or a sense of meaning
The only hope for your salvation is to embrace what death brings

Only death can save you
Only death can save you
Only death can save you
Only death can save you

The purging of God
To accede to purification
Ousting the wrought
The only path to redemption

Only death can save you
Only death can save you
Only death can save you
Only death can save you

Your faith and your god have failed you
You're alone with nothing left
From a lifetime of misery now spiraling towards the end
Desperate cries for salvation
Desolate screams go unheard
You become one with the nothing
This is your end

But if we walk in the light
As death is in the light
We have fellowship, one with another
Join us (Join us)
As death is in the light
As death is in the light

From his pedestal, hear the con man preach
His liturgy preying on the weak
On the gullible
His fledgling cult
Pietisms of enmity come to a moral assault

It's the charlatan's enunciation
And the mad men, listening
It's the charlatan's enunciation
And the blind sheep, following

From the hateful scriptures, pages of deceit
A lexicon drenched in blood, from which the clergy speaks
...of the path of the righteous
Another realm
The omnibenevolent and the horrors of hell

It's the charlatan's enunciation
And the mad men, listening
It's the charlatan's enunciation
And the blind sheep, following

Walk... in the path of the righteous
Walk... heed the words of the infallible

When treachery meets the fools of the Earth
Vague words and premises to a new religion give birth

It's the charlatan's enunciation
And the mad men, listening
It's the charlatan's enunciation
And the blind sheep, following

Walk with me, in the path of the righteous
Walk with me, heed the words of the infallible

It's the charlatan's enunciation
The charlatan's enunciation

1540, in the year of our lord
The Antichrist emerges in the shape of a claw
On the Papal Insignia, a satanic instrument
With an insatiable addiction to the seven deadly sins

Ego sum papa
Ego sum
I am the pope

The papist devil in the "age of discovery"
Trifles of drunkards
Mind changing in sobriety

Ego sum papa
Ego sum
I am the pope
Ego sum papa
Ego sum
I am the pope, the papist devil

I pontificate with disregard to the rebellious ones
The Anabaptists, nonchalance
My church is the home to carnal pleasures
To orgies in the temple of God
The venereal are my children
Onwards we march to the "New Jerusalem"

In league with the devil, I sermonize to the new world
Abjure the buffoons and their spiritual inheritance
The mockery will perpetuate to make of this edifice
The Vatican, an unholy state

Ego sum papa
Ego sum
I am the pope, the papist devil

Visions come to you in dreams
Earth rotting beneath your feet
The mannequins dance in the light
Their seduction consumes your mind

Oblivious to the sight of paradise burning
Irreverent towards God
Obstinate and in denial
Anointed man of the cloth

Your sacrament and vows are at stake
Consummation of a trembling faith
Enticed by all that is profane
Spiritually gone insane

Unholy man
Unholy man
Unholy man
Unholy man

It warms your heart with its eyes
Then tears you apart with its teeth
These virtues, are they worth the gamble?
The sacrifice, the deceit?
Penance through divine revelation
The daggers of faith and grace
From what lurks in the shadows to succumb to its mysterious ways

Enticed by all that is profane
Spiritually gone insane

Unholy man

Unholy man
Unholy man
Unholy man
Un-
