Lingering, oppression
Invisible shackle around your neck
Relentless coercion
By the sword and the altar
To a dead-end world
Of fear and credulity
To a dead-end world
Of wanton barbarity
Endorsing violence
As the means to enlightenment
With power and influence
As the true sacrament
To a dead-end world
There’ll be no tranquility
Until your very memory
Is wiped from the map
Subject to my will
Slaves
From their inception
I will take
Control of your souls
I am the destroyer
Suppression
Of knowledge
Every scathing edict purge
I will take
Control of your souls
I am the destroyer
Peace, freedom
The hellish winds that reign in heaven
Peace, freedom
Freedom
