lyrics

Why we live today
For the reason we die tomorrow?
A greater place awaits,
Or so is said for our sorrow.
Why only a single god we follow?
I do not know,
But Satan lives and wallows
And for Him, the goat’s blood I swallow.

As I kill the virgin
I feel the conversion
The bloody athane on the floor
I can’t believe what I just did
But it felt so good I want it more
And then I see the kid
But I stop myself and wait for next week
I cannot be greedy for that which I seek

The next week comes
And we gather again
The forest fills with occultist hums
Fire starts on the cross’s stem

The kid has grown
And now worthy of a sacrifice
Spread upon the altar of stone
Consciously defying christ
Covered in blood, lying dead
On the wall, I hang its head
With this transformation complete
Against all christians I vow to compete
