We're always searching for the answer be it disclosed in lion's heart
He smiles as the claimer of freshly driven carnal parts
This ******* has but stolen the skin of sheep for selfish will
Temptation's in his whisper as he lightly hums what only kills

He is the prince of all filth
Wearing the earth as a throne
He is the prince of all filth
Crumbling for a crown of frozen thorns

And so the ancients hath sworn his name
Bidding the earth and printing the idol graves
He brings the end, a warning
That will bring us in so we can all watch ourselves die
So listen to it rot

Why are the children bathing in his scales, chanting serpent names?
Broken porcelain glides along the marble floors
Idol eyes will never turn back to their lord
They dance in his coils and chant

And when this intention of death fails its end and makes life hell
Pray, 'Send us something to declare from this despair'
The hour sounds for an end

Watch yourself and your turning belief simply fade and writhe
He says, 'Fall before me like stone'
But the blindness finds me writing and inscribing
Carving legends into idol eyes

The dying sediments doth beg of god
'Belay my sin and cast this off'
The dishonored sun is boiling my body
Pretending I'm dead

Worship in shame the worshipers of clay
When the insipid fallacy is exposed
This command is from my master
There is but one and only one God
And they shall say a prayer

They'll say a prayer to belie the unspoken scent
Of a nations mortified worship a thousand years in its dissent

Wake the ancients so we may breathe again
To simply come to live again
Wake the truth from its sleepless death
Wake from a thousand year sleep where the ignorant and blinded weep

Desecrated, lie in ash as the idols turn to dust
Desecrated is the prayer that a stone cannot indulge
Desecrated, leave them dying to believe again
To simply come to live again

Desecrated, they lie in ash
Desecrated, lie in ash as the idols turn to dust
Desecrated is the prayer that a stone cannot indulge
Desecrated
