The Burning Shrines

Blasphemy and anarchy rule the savage mind
A cleric of ignorance for the blind, foretold in ancient scriptures
On their knees for endless worship, they shall never see the light again
And so they pray on to their shallow gods
Falling messiahs preaching prophesies
Pestilence, oppression and deceit
A ravaged land now bleeds
No one to save them from themselves
Their prayers go unheard
Koran of ignorance for the blind
Foretold in ancient scriptures
On their knees for endless worship
Only live to exist and endure
And they shall follow into the kingdom of the dead
And they shall perish encased in their beliefs
Crumbling palaces and fountains of blood
Ravage of war inflict the terrain
There’s no escape from death in the sky
With fierce opposition destroying their shrines
Overwhelming force
Brought forth with conviction
To destroy all those who oppose
