New Revelation

An Angel descended to the earth    
And blew his trumpet  
And he called to judgment all the living    
And all those who lay in the tomb    
But it was already to late    
And every sinner was fast asleep    
And the trumpet voice was in vain    
And only one rose up    
    
Over a world that has fallen asleep    
He rises in the shadow, an ominous    
evil raised from the pits of hell    
A formidable idol with an animal grin    
The new Revelation    
   
His empty eye sockets are watching    
behind our dreams    
   
Raising blood-washed palms    
His priests conduct their rituals,    
their cruel ceremonies and processions,    
preparing new innocent victims    
   
For the sake of a terrible Demon    
exiled from hell    
   
I hear the fierce rumble of drums    
And the hum of ritual singing    
Flames rise to the stars    
above the stars - mountains of black ash    
   
His crimson arms reach out    
to us over the abyss    
   
Trying to forget about yesterday's losses    
we create, grow, build and believe    
But no peace comes to a forsaken land    
and he does not sleep for a second    
   
He is always on the alert,    
   
    bloody and ruthless    
    The one Hell exiled    
    Prophesies broken    
              -  I now see    
    The new Revelation    
              -  is ME
