lyrics

Knowing what was to come you hedged your bluff
Was leaving your first estate really not enough

In hatred for your mistake you gave birth
To a movement underground but over the Earth

I want to see you burn
I want to see you pay
I long to see you burn
You and your counterfeit ways

Underneath your thumb a war was waged
Against the hearts of Man until the end of days

And every damaged soul that you have claimed
Adds weight to your doomed and tortured fate

I want to see you burn
I want to see you pay
I long to see you burn
You and your counterfeit ways

Every crime
For all time
For mankind
Every life

You were let go
That we may know
What is a foe
And a foe
That contrast show
A love inside
That overflows
