Looking Down the Cross

Now before they take me and my blessed life

Now youll now why death was summoned here tonight

Ill recall my perils, theyll kill me in pride

No, I cant run away, theres no place to hide

Though too much to live for, I owe enough to die

Ask not for salvation, my death shall mean their lives

Hatred and guilt - the alter theyve built, high priests of sin

Destiny, fate - the wicked ones gate, beckoning you in

Down the walkways through the bloodstained town

Looking down the cross, bleeding from the crown

Led to stay, to die beside the thieves

Kill the king of the world to be

And now to you, this will come:

A putrefying pestilence

More noxious than the serpents breath

Malevolently destined

More corrupt than the malice of Choronzon

More diseased than the wind of the moonlight sun

Putrefaction you have caused, no need for confession

Now you wish you had a god to stop your demolition

Crush the bones of the hundred fold, swing the judgment hammer

Man, woman, child, no one is safe

The heads of the dead are the banner

And this was all you got

So don these broken wings

Sands of time have run out

Bells of Hades ring

Is this a nightmare to unhallow thy name?

Smell of brimstone dancing in the flames

No help now as you fufill his task

Chief of evil has got you by the ass

Set free to sit up on the throne

Just a dream, youre weeping all alone

[04:33]Looking down the cross, speak no evil

[04:37]Im looking down the cross, speak no evil
