Brace

By climaks

Grab your blood ridden scripture
This Earth is coming down
Take the crucifixes up as arms
On us all, you’ll turn around
God forsaken people
Take up from His hands
Take my head as your payment
To enter your holy land

[Chorus]
The dead will crawl their way to Heaven
The lost will find their end in Him
Against this menace there’s no stopping
Sing our hymn, as we are damned

[Verse]
Defile this lust with reverence
Or revere the lust to defile
Take the crucifix to our chests
Stack our bodies by the pile
You are God’s militia
Take up from his hands
The blade to behead this body
The offering of fellow man

[Chorus]

[Break (simultaneously)]
Grab your blood ridden scripture
(word’s of Christ bleed red)
This Earth is coming down
(In this land of death)
Take the crucifixes up in arms
(Bow your heads for your sin)
On us all you’ll turn around
(against this guillotine)
God forsaken people
(Forsake your dying God)
Take up from His hands
(Drink of his blood)
Take my head as payment
(take His life eternal)
To enter your holy land
(Rest in the inferno)
[Break 2]
Against swords graze I rest
In the name of God, raze flesh
Until there’s nothing left
Eat life from my death

Save me the drink
Of the genocidal cup
Condemn my precious body
And the taboo of my touch
Spare me the salvation
Of a cannibalistic crutch
Kill me in my humanity
At the hands of the church

    Nice song. I don't read much goth/spiritual poetry and I really enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing. :)
