Carve an image of what you see Place your offering at it's feet Put your trust into the stone Put your faith into it alone
For it is written this shouldn't be done That He should be the only one but I will show you many ways To worship which you know not
Listen to me, do as I say Make a pillar to the Baal Kill the sacrifice, spill the blood Then he will grant you power
What has he not responded? More blood must be required Cut yourself for his favour
Binding up your ears and eyes, you are blind to perceive my lies In your search for the truth I tell you what you want to hear, that you have no need to fear From what lies beyond Trust in what you see and feel, to the Asherah bow and kneel In hope of your salvation I'm here to lead you astray because there is no other way Apart from what is written
Bow Down! Worship your idols Bow Down! Follow in blindness Unaware of whom you really serve In this world I place your trust When death comes you'll turn to dust As I drag you down to the pit
Your request has not been answered? Burn incense the moon, sun and stars, Worship the host of heaven For a glimpse into your future
What? You wish to know more? Then you must give to see You only perceive what I let you Can the stars control your fate?
To your blinded ears and eyes, I present another lie Which you accept as the truth Told you what you want to hear, believing now you've nothing to fear From what lies beyond Trust in your experience, to the heavens burn incense To maintain your salvation Further I lead you astray, from the path of the way Of that which is written
Go to the sacred grove, The high place on the mountain side To the Astoreth to worship, For her blessing a price is required
Give yourself to her service Sell your body for her needs Defile your flesh at her command Prostitution used to please
Broken, used and despised Top your images you cry But they can't answer you 'cause by your hand they're hewn You still do not see Where it is that I lead And that behind my mask I mock you and I laugh
What are these pathetic attempts By which you try to save yourself? Believe you still don't have their ear I know a way that draws them near A sacrifice of blood and fire Burning flesh upon the pyre They will respond to the offering of your child
Go down to the valley of Hinnom Where the children pass through flames of Molech
To Molech's image you bow the knee With your tongue you honour him As innocent screams fill the air In this place of worship The flesh of the worship The flesh of the young consumed by fire All for his blessing Is there power enough to save you In this blood offering?
Place your child upon the altar As the priest prepares the fuel To the image make you promise Before the flesh is consumed
Then they hand the torch to you For you must start the flame Light the child for your atonement Screaming as they burn in vain
Guilty, weary and without hope Is the place where my lies have led Amused I watch you keep the rituals For the works of your hands cannot save
What you've return to the Book of the promise? And now you must trust in His word? I watch as you escape the slavery Of my deceitful voice
It opens up your ears and eyes now can perceive my lies As you've found the truth I can't tell you what you want to hear as now you have no need to fear From what lies beyond Trust in the written word, no idols do you have to serve In belief you've found salvation I no longer lead you astray because you trust in the way Of that which is written
Tear Down! The false idols Tear Down! Follow enlightened Now aware of whom you really serve Beyond this world place your trust Death is beaten now for us You can be saved from the pitTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
