The Vengeful One
As I survey the chaos, taking in the lack of raw humanity
It's as if the entire world's fallen in love with their insanity
Hear the innocent voices scream as their tormentors laugh through all of it
No forgiveness for all I've seen, a degradation I cannot forget
So sleep soundly in your beds tonight
For judgement falls upon you at first light
I'm the hand of God, I'm the dark messiah
I'm the vengeful one
(Look inside and see what you're becoming)
In the blackest moment of a dying world
What have you become?
(Look inside and see what you're becoming) oh
As the violence surges and the teeming masses have been terrorized
Their human predators, all gone mad, are reaping profits born from their demise
The rabid media plays their role, stoking the flames of war, to no surprise
Only too eager to sell their souls, for the apocalypse must be televised
So sleep soundly in your beds tonight
For judgement falls upon you at first light
I'm the hand of God, I'm the dark messiah
I'm the vengeful one
(Look inside and see what you're becoming)
In the blackest moment of a dying world
What have you become?
(Look inside and see what you're becoming) oh
When you die (you die), you'll know why (know why)
For you cannot be saved with all the world enslaved
When you die (you die), you'll know why
You'll die (you'll die) and know why (know why)
For you cannot be saved, this world is too depraved
When you die (you die), you'll know why
I'm the hand of God, I'm the dark messiah
I'm the vengeful one
(Look inside and see what you're becoming)
In the blackest moment of a dying world
What have you become?
(Look inside and see what you're becoming) oh
I'm the hand of God, I'm the dark messiah
I'm the vengeful one
(Look inside and see what you're becoming)
In the blackest moment of a dying world
What have you become?
(Look inside and see what you're becoming)
(Look inside and see what you're becoming)
It's as if the entire world's fallen in love with their insanity
Hear the innocent voices scream as their tormentors laugh through all of it
No forgiveness for all I've seen, a degradation I cannot forget
So sleep soundly in your beds tonight
For judgement falls upon you at first light
I'm the hand of God, I'm the dark messiah
I'm the vengeful one
(Look inside and see what you're becoming)
In the blackest moment of a dying world
What have you become?
(Look inside and see what you're becoming) oh
As the violence surges and the teeming masses have been terrorized
Their human predators, all gone mad, are reaping profits born from their demise
The rabid media plays their role, stoking the flames of war, to no surprise
Only too eager to sell their souls, for the apocalypse must be televised
So sleep soundly in your beds tonight
For judgement falls upon you at first light
I'm the hand of God, I'm the dark messiah
I'm the vengeful one
(Look inside and see what you're becoming)
In the blackest moment of a dying world
What have you become?
(Look inside and see what you're becoming) oh
When you die (you die), you'll know why (know why)
For you cannot be saved with all the world enslaved
When you die (you die), you'll know why
You'll die (you'll die) and know why (know why)
For you cannot be saved, this world is too depraved
When you die (you die), you'll know why
I'm the hand of God, I'm the dark messiah
I'm the vengeful one
(Look inside and see what you're becoming)
In the blackest moment of a dying world
What have you become?
(Look inside and see what you're becoming) oh
I'm the hand of God, I'm the dark messiah
I'm the vengeful one
(Look inside and see what you're becoming)
In the blackest moment of a dying world
What have you become?
(Look inside and see what you're becoming)
(Look inside and see what you're becoming)
