The tremors have ended We came with proof, we aim and shoot Even if they surrendered Cough up your sickness, right in their faces Lions paced in circles of blood, open their cages Let them feed I've been to hell I've been to hell and sat down with the devil Watched as God commanded children to pick up their weapons Ripping wings feather by feather from the backs of his angels Caught a glimpse of the heavens then dragged off by hooks through their ankles Lowered down in their cages Holy flesh branded, exposed to radiation Hooks hang them in their places, bring the blades in Even the thickest skin can be penetrated Time to meet your new Satan Brothers and sisters, better hold your blade close Speak up heroes, you'll be hung by your haloes "Gored by the horn of the goat, we'll slit your throat And paint red every fucking rainbow We'll Sew your lips so you may not speak up SongtexteSaw your hands so you may not reach out Take your tongues for even thinking of being loud Give them something new and real to complain about" Can you hear them laughing? Vultures watching the nest, scanning for heartbeats Told me they'd kill twice as many as I tried to save It will be mourning no matter the time of day Wolves drenched in sheep flesh, these rejects They preach love but to them, love means death Lay the traps for the termites Spray the rats, still they survive Accelerate extinction Detonate dead systems If the devil built an army, heaven's not where he'd send them 7 horns, 8 eyes, 9 tails And the ten of swords will drop We're all doomed to rot Nailed to a cross The final song is sung Black my lungs Kings cower in their kingdoms Gods hide up in their heavens Paved all the hospitals to put up a prison Oh well, turn the blade on yourself Your wife and children Godspeed reaper Sharpen your cleaver Then swing, swing, swing life away Death, death, death came in waves We'll Sew your lips so you may not speak up Saw your hands so you may not reach out Take your tongues for even thinking of being loud Give them something new and real to complain about Girls are gathered to watch the boys be butchered Covered in guts of the gods slain and prey slaughtered The ones they swore to protect are all dead now We left the hellhounds to guard the hen house After all We were lied to from the start After all They said you can trust us, keep moving, don't make any sudden stops Come forth, confess the sickness you suffer from, suffer from Told us to spread our wings so it was easy to cut em off, cut em off After all "It's only when you fall that you learn how to fly" Yet we fell to our deaths Made our mark on the pavement Swallow a bullet, the only way to save them Cannot sorry away the pain we gave them Goodbye cruel world I will return Give up on us Give up on you Give up on all They may not ever understand Wash us clean in the blood of the lamb Aus Songtexte Mania
