The Serpent and the King

Idols to their worlds
Manifesting anger
Conjurers of evil times
We can sense the danger

They claim every soul
Show you who's the leader
Bow before iconoclasts
Creators of disaster

They play with stars and sulphur just for heaven's sake
To them, we're a fantasy to see who's first to break
When good and evil go to war, we leave it up to fate
Since time began they fought for man, incurring love and hate

The serpent and the king
The serpent and the king
The serpent and the king
The serpent and the king

Wiping out the weak
Lording their creation
Where you hide, they'll find to seek
Feeding those mistaken

Pyramid of bones
Satiate their hunger
Volatilic, they condone
Sympathies, no longer

They play with stars and sulphur just for heaven's sake
To them, we are a fantasy to see who's first to break
When good and evil go to war, we leave it up to fate
Since time began they fought for man, incurring love and hate

The serpent and the king
The serpent and the king
The end is coming soon
The serpent and the king
The serpent and the king
It's time to meet your doom

Cast out of paradise
Temptation's wrath
Constrict, self-sacrifice
The tree of life

They claim every soul
Show you who's the leader
Bow before iconoclasts
Creators of disaster

They play with stars and sulphur just for heaven's sake
To them, we're fantasy, let's see who's first to break
When good and evil go to war, we leave it up to fate
Since time began they fought for man, incurring love and hate

The serpent and the king
The serpent and the king
The serpent and the king
The serpent and the king
The serpent and the king
The end is coming soon
The serpent and the king
Prepare to meet your doom
