Altar Ego
Set your body ablaze
May you worship in flames
Become a martyr for your god
I saw them beg for shelter
I saw the change in you
As they swore you their souls
So you could empty their pockets
You bartered the souls of the faithful
Your golden castle was built on their bones
You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting
The greatest sin of the apostate is
They wanted to be like you
I felt their pangs of hunger
I heard them praying for relief
As you emptied your halls
To make more room for your feast
You bartered the souls of the faithful
Your golden castle was built on their bones
You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting
The greatest sin of the apostate is
They wanted to be like you
I can see right through you
Holy ghost
A wolf in a wool overcoat
Altar Ego
You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting
The greatest sin of the apostate is
They wanted to be like you
May you worship in flames
Become a martyr for your god
I saw them beg for shelter
I saw the change in you
As they swore you their souls
So you could empty their pockets
You bartered the souls of the faithful
Your golden castle was built on their bones
You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting
The greatest sin of the apostate is
They wanted to be like you
I felt their pangs of hunger
I heard them praying for relief
As you emptied your halls
To make more room for your feast
You bartered the souls of the faithful
Your golden castle was built on their bones
You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting
The greatest sin of the apostate is
They wanted to be like you
I can see right through you
Holy ghost
A wolf in a wool overcoat
Altar Ego
You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting
The greatest sin of the apostate is
They wanted to be like you
