Equinox of the Gods

Listen to the angel sing, I can hear her crying
I can see her burning wings
In a burning church of shame
Bloody Mary in flames
Spoken infernal names

Rise from the ashes and do it again
Yeah, we can make it happen

My nemesis, my friend
Why don't you stop to pretend?
It's the beginning not the bitter end, no
Through the Genesis flood
We were baptized in blood
Military coup of the new God's

Rise from the ashes and do it again
Yeah, we can make it happen

This is the equinox of the gods
This is the equinox of the gods
Set the altar on fire
See the embers go higher
See the burning oils glowing
Sacrificial blood's flowing

We never bow unto thee
We went to Gethsemane
Kill your self-pitying Nazarene
Now all the cherubs are deceased
Upon their corpses we feast
The only good priest is a dead priest

Rise from the ashes and do it again
Yeah, we can make it happen
Yeah, we can make it happen

This is the equinox of the gods
This is the Equinox of the gods

Crucify her upside down
Impale her with rusty nails
Dress her up in a blood-red gown
And gory, beautifully painted veil
Let her bleed to death before our eyes
Oh, ooh
May she be punished and sacrificed
Oh ooh, oh yeah

The dirty nuns are in chains, no monasteries remain
The time has come for our Master to reign again
Thy kingdom is gone, Satan's work is done
A bomb over Babylon

Rise from the ashes and do it again
Yeah, we can make it happen

This is the equinox of the gods
This is the equinox of the gods
This is the equinox of the gods
This is the equinox of the gods
Set the altar on fire
See the embers go higher
See the burning oils glowing
Sacrificial blood flowing

Listen to the angel sing
I can hear her crying
I can see the burning wings
I can hear her dying
