Iced Earth - Damien

Taken from the album, Horror Show.

Lyrics
------
So the beast resides in me
Deep down I always knew
I never really did fit in
So diverse from all of you
Let him who comprehends
Know the number of the beast
It's a number of a man
A number just for me
As the boy becomes a man
Father's minions pave the way
Set in motion now, Armageddon,
Final conflict, end of days
I embrace the hounds of hell
And the power they oblige
For the task that lies ahead
The Nazarene I'll crucify
They'll see the raptures of our kingdom
They'll see the truth to mankind
I'll show what hell truly is
The monotony of their lives

[Chorus]
When the Jews return to Zion
And a comet fills the sky
The Holy Roman Empire rises
And you and I must die
From the eternal sea he rises
Creating armies on either shore
Turning man against his brother
Till man exists no more
[spoken]
"Nazarene, what can you offer?
Since the hour you vomited forth
from the gaping womb of a woman,
you have done nothing but drown mens' soaring desires in a deluge of
sanctimonious morality.
I was conceived of a jackal.
Your pain on the cross was but a splinter
compared to the agony of my father.
I will drive deeper the thorns into your rancid carcass,
you profaner of Isis.
Cursed Nazarene, I will avenge thy torment."
Now Disciples of the Watch
See your Prince of Darkness rise
Through famine and destruction
The Four Horsemen at my side
I demand a victory, I demand a sacrifice
Or spend all eternityIn the flaccid gut of Christ!

[Chorus]
When the Jews return to Zion
And a comet fills the sky
The Holy Roman Empire rises
And you and I must die
From the eternal sea he rises
Creating armies on either shore
Turning man against his brother
Till man exists no more

[koryfknbrine]

@metallicarockk just got back from the show in Edmonton, it was spectacular.

[DarkAngelEvilAngel]

@aSentientLife Oh, ok, touché ^^.

I'm agree.

[aSentientLife]

@DarkAngelEvilAngel The lyrics aren't the issue; when people come on here and rant about how much God sucks, and they love Satan. And when people come on here and talk about how much they love God and hate Satan, and argue about it on THIS video...nobody gives a shit. That's what I was trying to explain. They argue all they want, neither of them will change each others' opinions. So it's complete ignorance.

[aSentientLife]

@2009notaspy Well no, I'm not saying that at all. I was trying to explain the fact that whether you're religious or not, you will still speak mindless words and shout and curse and sound like a complete dumbass without thinking first. However, good work with your investigation skills Sherlock, because with your misunderstanding, came an ignorant insult. Poo poo on you, noob-face.

[aSentientLife]

@Garudabr I understand. My comment was more directed towards those who ARE here just to rebel...JUST to rebel. To place blame on somebody else, or God, for relief of responsibility. Whether it's people who are for, or against God. I'd say against religion, but if you believe in Satan, you must believe in God. I'm glad you're response wasn't full of mindless obscenities, so I actually took the time to write back. Thanks for not being a jerk off; no sarcasm, I mean it. :)

[Blo0dymAdn3ss]

stop arguing about religion and enjoy the music

[DarkAngelEvilAngel]

@Zarehinvain Okay.... is a good lullaby.... XD

This isn't my problem, I'm atheist, you can love whatever you want, XD.
