The ancient civilizations In their temples filled with dread Were linked together with their gods By rivers flowing red Prosperity and power Gained from bodies without heads
In sacrifice the balance lies The chosen stricken down The gods' insatiable lust for death Had limits never found Harmony can only exist With corpses on the ground
Humans squander greatness The ways of wisdom gone A cancerous shadow looming I must bring back the dawn
Selected for this, I am This world screams inside The lambs await my coming I see inside their minds
One by one the open minds Are standing by my side Taken from the hand of darkness For sanity they've cried Cast aside your past life You have joined the enlightened pride
[Lead - dc]
The ancient blood will spill again Our numbers only grow Our temples raised, our hearts are pure The power in us flows I'll lead my people to the sun The time has come to go The vultures will feed and I will look down On the mangled far below
