Burial Choir - The Mighty Deceiver

The tides of spiritual decay slowly rising
Breathless cores of flesh, now sinking and drowning
Crying and bleeding, singing their woes
Reading words of hope utterly denied

Nails for believers, hammer for light bearer
The endless bloodstream for the mighty deceiver

The dreams of spiritual awakening
The pages written with ashes
A view of the kingdom gone
And those embers glow

At the verge of a new path opening
Welcoming the dawn with hammer and nails
Baptized with tears and disgrace
Unlock the gates, self-sacrifice for true fate

Welcoming the dawn with hammer and nails
Scarred through the flesh in the name of the faith
Bleeding for their blessed words
Scarred for the rotten, desecrated core

Nails for believers, hammer for light bearer
The endless bloodstream for the mighty deceiver

Open the gates for a path of an iconoclast
