Arise! Your God is meaningless, your God is misery In blood we write our names, in blood we will remain This is a tragedy, your God is meaningless Your God is suffering, all hail the sacrifice This is the chaos we devour I am called upon to kill your race There’s no hope, there is no future All we have is bloodshed You ask me to defile you, you ask me to deny you I oblige Sharpening our swords to cut their throats We’ll bring them to the flames of our Purgatory reign We stand, stand by my side, defy and deny In this void of wordless clarity So this is it, this is the end Let there be judgment again and again We stand alone, we are the throne Let there be darkness This is farewell, this is your hell A birth of madness, a life in shame It’s all a lie, it’s all the same You’ll carry this cross forever All this, all this is false, all this is shame You ask me to forgive you, I beg for you to be A sacrifice to me, I’m everything you need I am eternal
