equinox of the gods

Singer:tiamat

listen to the angel sing

i can hear her crying

i can see her burning wings

in a burning church of shame

a bloody mary in flames

spoken infernal names

rise from the ashes and do it again

yeah

we can make it happen

my nemesis

my friend

why don't you stop to pretend

it's the beginning not the bitter end

no

through the genesis flood

we were baptized in blood

a military coup of the new gods

rise from the ashes and do it again

yeah

we can make it happen

this is the equinox of the gods

this is the equinox of the gods

set the altar on fire

see the embers go higher

see the burning oils glowing

sacrificial blood's flowing

we never bow unto thee

we went to gethsemane

to kill your self-pitying nazarene

now all the cherubs are deceased

upon their corpses we feast

the only good priest is a dead priest

rise from the ashes and do it again

yeah

we can make it happen

yeah

we can make it happen

this is the equinox of the gods

this is the equinox of the gods

crucify her upside down

impale her with rusty nails

dress her up in a blood red gown

and gory

beautifully painted veil

let her bleed to death before our eyes

oh oh

may she be punished and sacrificed

oh oh

oh yeah!

the dirty nuns are in chains

no monasteries remain

the time has come for our master to reign again

thy kingdom is gone

satan's work is done

a-bomb over babylon

rise from the ashes and do it again

yeah

we can make it happen

this is the equinox of the gods

this is the equinox of the gods

this is the equinox of the gods

this is the equinox of the gods

set the altar on fire

see the embers go higher

see the burning oils glowing

sacrificial blood's flowing

listen to the angel sing

i can hear her crying

i can see her burning wings

i can hear her dying
