Looking Down The Cross Lyrics

Now, before they take me and my blessed life Now, you'll know why death was summoned here tonight I'll recall my perils they'll kill me in pride No, I can't run away there's 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 they've built high priests of sin Destiny fate the wicked ones gate beckoning you in
Down the walkways through the blood stained 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 purifying pestilence More noxious then the serpent's breath malevolently destined More corrupt then the malice of Choronzon More disease then 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 Crushing the bones of the hundred folds Swinging 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 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 fulfill his task Chief of evil has got you by the ass
Set free to sit upon the throne Just a dream you're weeping all alone
Looking down the cross, speak no evil Looking down the cross, speak no evil Looking down the cross, speak no evil Looking down the cross, speak no evil
