Colosseum Carnage Lyrics

Crowd obsessed with blood and gore
Satisfied by the bloody spectacle
Witness the public funeral
In the ancient arena of death
Beast to men, men to men, beast to beast
For the praise of the Vestal Virgins
Prisoners fight each other to death
Kill them, flog them, burn them!
Victims soiled with blood to lure the wild animals
Condemned to face a starved wild beast
For their Lord Jesus Christ they die between the jaws of the lion
When the wounded gladiator eats sand
Demons from the underworld come to assure his death
Hitting him with hammers, and burning him with hot iron
Dragged out of the arena with the glorious playing of trumpets
The mutilated body passed away to the Libitinarian Gate
Pass away in splendour
Steer away with Charon
Ave imperato morituri te salutant!
To face the goddess Libitina
Hail emperor, men soon to die salute thee!
Gladiators in chariots dressed in purple
Obsessed with gore and slaughter
Victims soiled with blood to lure the wild animals
Condemned to face a starved wild beast
For their Lord Jesus Christ they die between the jaws of the lion
Romans obsessed with bloody battles and death
Pontifex Maximus Caligula enjoys the sacrifice of blood
When the wounded gladiator eats sand
Demons from the underworld come to assure his death
Gladiators in chariots dressed in purple
Obsessed with gore and slaughter
Ave imperato morituri te salutant!
Hail motherfucker, men soon to die salute thee!
