lyrics

Prophets foretold, this chalice of blood.
Poured from the head, and born of the mud.
Anger shall arise, from the rejected.
In grim retaliation on the ones not protected.
Pick up the gun, fill it with bullets,
Erase all their lives, find the trigger and pull it.
Eye for an eye, life for a wasted life.
Make these ones cry, the results of the knife.

I was nailed down, but I'm becoming the nailer.
Prison of hate turned me into the jailer.
A thousand lies to find the lord of all liars.
The crucified will be the cruciFIRE.

Fashioning crosses, cut from the trees.
To nail and to burn the human debris.
No one recieves a stay or a pardon
Dying, they hang like a Golgotha garden
Vengenance of need, cold promise of hate,
Passage of time, demands not to wait.
Prayers on the knees, whispers of "thou",
Leads me to ask, where is your God now?

May have lost the battle, but I must win the war.
Defending this house, pick open the sores.
