Born of the sacred rite of
Liars and thieves
In wind, your castles falter
In death, your hearts bleed
The demons drag me downward
Their voices calling
There is a separation
Of lions and sheep
Crossed hearts, hope-to-die
Satisfied?
Token of the morbid
Covenant
Pyres by morning light
Sordid mortal law
Shortest straw
Given to the highest, the pious,
Grotesque covenant
Scorched earth, watch it burn
No return
Massacre them
None shall stand against the
Faultless covenant
Broken one
Chosen, the unspoken one
Marked the reaper
Harbinger
Gather all the souls of the
Mindless cretin
Broken one
Chosen, the unspoken one
Fear the reaper
Azrael
Kneels to the king of all
Lifeless damnation
Token of the covenant
Whispering words that seal your demise
Token of the covenant
Abandon the light, it's all a disguise
Death
Chosen, the unspoken one
Blood on my hands, come open the sky
Broken, the unholy one
Spare your lament, you're all going to die
Chosen, the unspoken one
Arrives with the wind and leaves with the tide
Broken, the unholy one
Conditioned, perdition; the meaning of life
Chosen, the unspoken one rise
Blood on my hands, tear open the sky
Broken, the unholy one cries
Spare your lament, you're all going to die
Crossed hearts, hope-to-die
Satisfied?
Token of the morbid
Covenant
Pyres by morning light
Sordid mortal law
Shortest straw
Given to the highest, the pious,
Grotesque covenant
Your cries
He will rise
Leave behind
Massacre them
No hope, break the world
Token of the Covenant
Born of the sacred rite of
Liars and thieves
Resistance turned to fodder
For the reckoning
Into the hell eternal
Become the obscene
In wind, your castles faltered
In death, you found me
