lyrics

Here in life as in death
There is a guiding light
From within to begin
In the end we are cast aside

And I know the harder we go
The light will surely dim
Till the final click - flicking of the switch
We all know it will not be slow

What will you do when the snake in the heart of your opposer comes to burn your city?
The snake in his heart is the snake in mine
Eternal crusade in the devils chest
Are you privileged enough to die for the life you desire?
Or is the call for sacrifice too much to light your fire?

Will you cower naked in your den?
Or will you seek to find the source?
And cast them out!
Cast them out!

Here in life as in death
There are dividing lines
From within house of sin
Breeds from the sharp decline

And I know the seeds are sown
And serpent of fire consumes
All the promises and the bitterness
Etched into the calming doom

Gather your torches
Gather your men
Gather your wits now
Gather your kin

Kill all the thoughts of what must be given
Focus on what is to be gained
A dark heart is not born blackened
It is scorched in the flames of betrayal

Don't you know?
Truth is treason
In an empire of lies

Here in life as in death
There is a guiding light
From within born of sin
In the end we are cast aside

But I know the harder we go is where we already went
until the spirals cease
Dreaming of the beast
Whispering unrest beneath
