Changes are crawling over the land All things must come to an end Our deepest convictions were twisted to shame By an entourage so seemingly tame
They're teaching the word of a stranger messiah Spreading his world like wildfire With a wistful heart I see their churches arise Where our old groves brought shelter in the night
Age of torment
Solo: Elwitschger
Hundredds of years on the madness has won Fear and greed led to submission Those who stick to the old old way face hatred and scorn A faith forever forlirn
They're whipping the ones who won't bend their knees As they preach of compassion and charity In the name of the cross they now fight side by side Till all of the heretics have died
Age of torment
Die! Die, now as you kneel There is no chance for false pleas Die! Die, break on the wheel Your soul will be cleansed by my steel
Deus vult - heading to the Promised Land Wresting our claim from their demonic hand
The false ones shall face expulsion and death I'm serving God's will - till my last breath
A smell of death fills the streets of this town Full of moaning bodies with swollen boils Victims of a mighty disease Sent as punishment from God The mounts of garbage on the streets Won't help to stop the plague But we must atone for our sins with self-flagellation While the cold hand of death spares none
Noe confess witch your pact with Satan You'll die in any way Burned at the stake or drowned in the lake There can't be enough decay
No one escaped the strength of the inquisition They make you pay For crimes you've never committed For things you'd never say
Devastating the sight, engulfing the mind The idea is left far behind The force of religion has taken its toll Total clerical control
An age of torment, suffering and pain Its fascination will forever remain The age of legends, dark as the night Still filling your hearts with fright
