Erasing the earth through the wave of your hand
Your life means much more than mine
Gathering strength you await your command
We've stared at the sun until all eyes are blind

Guardian of fire, who's sworn to you?
Enlightened one, secreting the truth

Wait bide your time
Desecrater
Souls lost to time
Suffocator

Rise from your knees, avenger
Live to disease, betrayer
Rise from your knees, avenger
Live to disease, betrayer

From chaos you reign with the world on a leash
Jerking the chain to force a cry
Obedience now subservience next
We do as you will or we scream when we die

Hymn to disaster, sing it to the land
The chilling strains of man destroying man

Wait bide your time
Desecrater
Souls lost to time
Here forever

Rise from your knees, avenger
Live to disease, betrayer
Rise from your knees, avenger
Live to disease, betrayer

The streets wet with blood and the sky spitting fire
No one escapes from the clutch of the damned
Ascend, ascend to the throne of your madness
A skeletal knight with a scepter in hand

Rise from your knees, rise from your knees
Rise from your knees, rise from your knees

Rise from your knees, rise from your knees
Rise from your knees, rise from your knees

Your coming foretold and we watched all the signs
And still we failed to recognize
Begged your solutions to damage your planned
Deserving no mercy deserving your lies

Lord of the slaughter, who's sworn to you?
Oh, chosen one, lead us to our doom

Now is your time
Violator
Gifts from the blind
Desecrater

Rise from your knees, avenger
Live to disease, betrayer
Rise from your knees, avenger
Live to disease, betrayer

Rise from your knees, avenger
Live to disease, betrayer

Rise from your knees
Rise from your knees
Rise from your knees
Rise from your knees
Rise, rise, rise, rise
