The Holy And Profaned
The eternal dark night
All around a sea of blight
Tattered banners to past glory
When man was still the hero of the story
But into the early grave we lurch
As we forsake the signs of the seventh church
Those among us good long since gone
More and more torment with each dawn
We were given this holy gift
Yet from its light we did drift
The holy ascended with the saints
The rest of us tasting the corrupt taint
The incarnate of our mortal sin
Physical representation of the demon within
It governs the creator's fallen sons
This battle cannot be won
Against a force that won't relent
So embrace your end and repent
All around a sea of blight
Tattered banners to past glory
When man was still the hero of the story
But into the early grave we lurch
As we forsake the signs of the seventh church
Those among us good long since gone
More and more torment with each dawn
We were given this holy gift
Yet from its light we did drift
The holy ascended with the saints
The rest of us tasting the corrupt taint
The incarnate of our mortal sin
Physical representation of the demon within
It governs the creator's fallen sons
This battle cannot be won
Against a force that won't relent
So embrace your end and repent
