Analysis of Death of the Great Beast (Mortis Mega Therionis)
The world is drifting out into its destiny
All its subordinates are racing to death
When the planet stops spinning your sky will become the heart of hell
Without impunity all of that precious life is incinerated into a cloud of cosmic dust
I'll be there to collect you up into the urn of damnation and escort you home
When I close my eyes all the stars implode and darken and become as cold as the heart of god
I won't let you forget about me,
Traitor...
Liar...
I won't let you love and live on,
Destroyer...
You fooled them all into believing that you deserve respect and worship,
but I know the truth
The 7 deadly sins are virtues of god
Partake and be cast out of heaven
