Verse 1

Only the powers that be

Spawn serpents like me

Who wade our way through the carnage

And wreckage at sea

Later to find that justice was blind

The tales told to throw us off course

And make us believe that all roads would lead

To the cross, of course, as we bleed from deceit

Chorus

Army of martyrs, one by one

Shall sacrifice their flesh and bone

For greater good, it’s understood

By the verses, which were carved in stone

Words to live by and die by, too

Sacrilegious pagans: Now that you’ve

Taken it all, take my last breath

For God is my witness, how I long for death!

Verse 2

Evil despots in control of my social decay…

I constantly look for a way out

But there is no way out

My patience wears thin while shedding my skin

In hopes that the new one will last

As long as the day gives me shelter from rain

And from you

Away from you, I move fast

Chorus

The billions of diseased, one by one

Shall sacrifice their daily bread

To bring forth the apocalypse

Revenge of the living dead

For crimes committed against the meek

The blood shall spill onto the streets

Of sacrifice until I take my last breath

For God is my witness, how I long for death!

Solo

Chorus

Army of martyrs, one by one

Shall sacrifice their flesh and bone

For greater good, it’s understood

By the verses, which were carved in stone

Words to live by and die by, too

Sacrilegious pagans: Now that you’ve

Taken it all, take my last breath

For God is my witness, how I long for death!
