Reverend : A Gathering of Demons

Тексты песен


1. MASSACRE THE INNOCENT

On that day of evil
Eat the poisoned fruit
The blood of all our brothers
Will always feed the root

So the tablets teach us
As the story goes
The seed of Seth within us
And all the Ancients know

Tribal sky-clad warriors
Screaming out of their minds
Massacre the Innocent
Because they stepped out of line

Alexander was the great
Hannibal had plans
Julius Caesar had rank and file
Or were they just all mad?

Some, they died for money
Other times for glory
One thing stands for certain
War is cold and gory

Now the modern warriors
Screaming out of the skies
Massacre the Innocent
Because they felt maligned

You never really see me
And yet I'm always there

Wings of War

All I leave are ashes
The land is scorched and bare
You never seem to care at all
When I enter your mind
I'll make your neighbors hate you
Until the end of time

It always cuts us both ways
Icy blade of death
War is chopped for a moment
Till it catches its breath

And who will count the children
Laid low by the knife
Sight, breath, word and emotion
They are maimed for life

Now the modern armies
Still believe the lie
Massacre the Innocent
Because they stepped out of line

You never really see me
And yet I'm always there

Wings of War

All I leave are ashes
The land is scorched and bare
You never seem to care at all
When I enter your mind
I'll make your neighbors hate you
Until the end of time


2. DOWN

Bringing us down

If you give me the bullets I need
Then What?
Take all our traitors and they'd slowly bleed
You can't!
The politicians with dreams in the sand
Tell lies!
They think we don't know I can't understand

Hang them, shoot them I really don't care
String up their bodies to rot in the air
Rapists and liars they want what we own
When dealing out death you must cut to the bone

Bringing us down

Third world tyrants all have the plans
They have!
Nuclear suitcases hide in our land
Can't be!
We have grown weak and our enemies strong
Get back!
Will no one stand up and shout
This is wrong!

Hang them, shoot them I really don't care
String up their bodies to rot in the air
Rapists and liars they want what we own
When dealing out death you must cut to the bone

Now you're going to find that the people tire
Of listening to your games

When the vote's a joke and you know he toked
But the law just stayed the same
Would you be the mole, when he sold his soul
To the cocaine god of cash
You won't have a friend when the end
And you finally taste the lash

You can't pass the test till you've heard the rest
But who is telling lies?
Who was wrong when they sang a song
Of our secrets in the West
While the Chief's asleep all the goods are cheap
For our comrades in the east

Now the lack of time to regrow a spine
We're just fodder for the beast


3. STEALING MY MIND

You can't best me
While restrain me
In a state of second class
Catatonic philharmonic
Dying brainwaves
Blackened mass

You never stopped to take the time
When you were stealing from my mind

Shackles, chains and wired pains
Are spliced into your body bare
Tortured, twisting, mental blisting
Veins explode into the air

You never stopped to take the time
When you were stealing from my mind

Blind my eye
I will not cry
Someday you'll pay
For what you've done
You break my bones
And shock my stones
Your skull-like face
Is having fun


4. LEGION

His innocence had fled him
When he was just a boy
In darkness and in evil
Is where he hid his toys
Among the graves and tombstones
Is where he laid his head
The only friends he talked to
Were counted with the dead

And he was evil
He was ancient he strong

We are Legion

In bitterness and anger
Were two of many more
The entrance into madness
Was a wide and open door
A gathering of demons
had waited for that day

When he embraced the shadows
And they took him far away

And he was evil
He was ancient he strong

We are Legion

Now we sense he's coming
And heading straight our way
There's nowhere he can flee to
Holy light of day!

Master then enquired
As to who and what it was
It replied we're Legion
Because a thousand lives in one
Not to be destroyed they begged
For it was not their time

Then the Son of Man
Released them
In a heard of swine

And he was evil
He was ancient he strong
