Death of the Meek

[Verse 1]
Best be prepared to meet your maker
Best be prepared to face your God
Justified unholy nightmare
Crucified of pride, you're robbed

[Refrain]
No escape, it's too late
The hammer crashes down
Do or die

[Verse 2]
Cauterize to stop the blood flow
Still this torture's just begun
Eternal seconds keep on repeating
Charred retinas, a black collapsed lung

[Refrain]
No escape, it's too late
The hammer crashes down
Do or die

[Chorus]
All your fears won't match the wasted years of isolation
In due time I will ingest your kind, quench my starvation

[Bridge]
All present and accounted for
Hush! Do not speak
For tonight I raise a glass
To the death of the meek
Said we are the chosen
And we bare the sign
Their weapons are useless
Our weapon's our mind
Now you can't believe
How you'll inspire
Soon set to be free
Our blessed desire
You won't be imprisoned
No, you won't be ashamed
You won't be stripped of your language
Or your family name

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
No more inner demons
No more bitter spite
No more of the blood stained walls
Of your ancestral pride
Comatose, your eyes grow vacant
Paralyzing fear that builds
Stripped of your pathetic icons
Robbed of your heroic will

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
Artifact, your way of thinking
Your bones hang up upon my wall
Another fallen empire
The most self-righteous one of all

[Refrain]
No escape, it's too late
The hammer crashes down
Do or die

[Chorus]
All your fears won't match the wasted years of isolation
In due time I will ingest your kind, quench my starvation
In due time I will ingest mankind, quench my starvation
