lyrics

i wear the lion’s mane, i grin and bare my teeth
a captivating mask with nothing underneath
i am the angel of light in this masquerade
with open arms they welcome my charade
i have a host of slaves among the righteous ones
my heart swelled with pride when they were called my sons
to the one who bows, i offer everything
i hold the power of death, come and feel its sting

i have come from roving back and forth across the land
i am the new god who devours sacrifice
i fill hearts with deceit and greed, ‘til disciples are struck dead
i am the lawless one, worker of wonders and weaver of lies

i speak with silver tongue, drunk deep on blood and gold
i take their guilt away and return it sevenfold
i turned those rivers to blood and i rained down frogs from the sky
i wear the lion’s mane and i’ll stalk you ‘til you die

but i, even i, shudder in fear when the Holy One draws near
i feel the burn of eternal flame at the mention of His name
i set the world against his plan, had my soldiers kill the man
and i tore my flesh on that day when He walked out of His grave
