Modern Testament
We stayed beneath your shield
WE CRAWLED ON OUR KNEES
Begged you to be the one
THAT WOULD SET US FREE
We tremble at your feet
NOW WE'RE STANDING HOLDING CLOSED FIST
You'll wash away at SEA
TAKE UP YOUR ARMS IT'S TIME FOR WAR
We are the children of those you've enslaved
YOU'VE HEARD US CRY NOW HEAR US ROAR
You cannot keep us inside of this cage
And when you fall WHEN YOU FALL
You'll watch us crush the rest of them CRUSH THE REST OF THEM
The new age it comes this is our MODERN TESTAMENT
The horns are blown THE BATTLE CRY
We wont give in UNTIL WE DIE
Tonight's the night YOU'LL HEAR OUR HURT
You'll be the kings OF BONE AND DIRT
You are the liar THE LIAR
YOUR WORDS ARE SIN
We are the fire THE FIRE
WE'LL CONQUER AND WIN
TAKE UP YOUR ARMS IT'S TIME FOR WAR
We are the children of those you've enslaved
YOU'VE HEARD US CRY NOW HEAR US ROAR
You will not keep me inside of this cage
And when you fall WHEN YOU FALL
You'll watch us crush the rest of them CRUSH THE REST OF THEM
The new age it comes this is our MODERN TESTAMENT
STAND AND FIGHT WITH ME
We are the ones you cast away
WE ARE THE BASTARDS OF YOUR FAITH
We are the innocence you slayed
WE ARE THE LEADERS OF THE CRAZY CRAZY
TAKING ARMS
TAKING SOULS
LIGHTING FIRES IN THIS world so cold
TAKE UP YOUR ARMS IT'S TIME FOR WAR
We are the children of those you've enslaved
YOU'VE HEARD US CRY NOW HEAR US ROAR
You will not bury me down in this grave
And when you fall WHEN YOU FALL
You'll watch us crush the rest of them CRUSH THE REST OF THEM
The new age it comes this is our MODERN TESTAMENT
WE CRAWLED ON OUR KNEES
Begged you to be the one
THAT WOULD SET US FREE
We tremble at your feet
NOW WE'RE STANDING HOLDING CLOSED FIST
You'll wash away at SEA
TAKE UP YOUR ARMS IT'S TIME FOR WAR
We are the children of those you've enslaved
YOU'VE HEARD US CRY NOW HEAR US ROAR
You cannot keep us inside of this cage
And when you fall WHEN YOU FALL
You'll watch us crush the rest of them CRUSH THE REST OF THEM
The new age it comes this is our MODERN TESTAMENT
The horns are blown THE BATTLE CRY
We wont give in UNTIL WE DIE
Tonight's the night YOU'LL HEAR OUR HURT
You'll be the kings OF BONE AND DIRT
You are the liar THE LIAR
YOUR WORDS ARE SIN
We are the fire THE FIRE
WE'LL CONQUER AND WIN
TAKE UP YOUR ARMS IT'S TIME FOR WAR
We are the children of those you've enslaved
YOU'VE HEARD US CRY NOW HEAR US ROAR
You will not keep me inside of this cage
And when you fall WHEN YOU FALL
You'll watch us crush the rest of them CRUSH THE REST OF THEM
The new age it comes this is our MODERN TESTAMENT
STAND AND FIGHT WITH ME
We are the ones you cast away
WE ARE THE BASTARDS OF YOUR FAITH
We are the innocence you slayed
WE ARE THE LEADERS OF THE CRAZY CRAZY
TAKING ARMS

LIGHTING FIRES IN THIS world so cold
TAKE UP YOUR ARMS IT'S TIME FOR WAR
We are the children of those you've enslaved
YOU'VE HEARD US CRY NOW HEAR US ROAR
You will not bury me down in this grave
And when you fall WHEN YOU FALL
You'll watch us crush the rest of them CRUSH THE REST OF THEM
The new age it comes this is our MODERN TESTAMENT
