Virgin Steele - By The Gods LYRICS

[MUSIC & LYRICS BY DAVID DEFEIS]



[ERINYES:]

BY THE GODS - Black Slaughter

BY THE GODS - You're King

BY THE GODS - Blind Justice

BY THE GODS - We Sing

All shall heel, all shall hear!

BY THE GODS - Your Father

BY THE GODS - Your Soul

BY THE GODS - In Fire

BY THE GODS - You're owned

All shall heel, all shall hear!



[CHORUS OF ATHENIANS:]

Gods and Devils screaming out their Final Warning

Holy Fire from the Sky

Violent Mourning Burns the Rays of Olympus

While the Blood drips from their eyes

And the Crime shakes the Hall, "ARE YOU READY"

When you see the Liar Burn

Yet the Kanons are the Snakes of his Torment, at the Naval of the Earth



[ERINYES:]

I see the Sons of the Crown of the New

Covered in Bloodlust and shame

I feel the Whip of the Great Son of Zeus

Lashing my Honour and Place

Lightning won't remove the Crown We hold True

I see the Face of the God, I see the Face of the God on his Black Soul



[APOLLO:]

I see the Madness as I look into your eyes

Impaling Terror unfit for this Shrine

Riding in Thunder the Murdering Rain

Leave this Shrine and the Halls of the Mighty

Go and Haunt the Slaughterhouse!



[ERINYES:]

I see the Sons of the Crown of our New

King of the Heavens of Shame

I see the tricks of the Lords We once Ruled

I see the Face of the God, I see the Face of the God on his Black Soul



[APOLLO:]

Let the Goddess of Fortune decide who'll never return



[ERINYES:]

Will the Day break instead of the Night, the Victim returns



[ORESTES:]

In the Silence of the City, I await Fortune or Fire

Dear Athena be my Healer, I am here knowing that Life may never return...



[ERINYES:]

And when you Die you'll meet the World's Suffering

Plunge into the Black Night Sky

We are in Force, We are called as One... All as One

Holding the Ancient Right of Blood...
