Behold As I Become the Great Cold Betrayer Lyrics

Solo: Mike Wead

It's in my eyes, your blood is raining from the sky
I wonder why, I wonder why you had to die
I'm still alive, I'm still alive, I'm flying higher
than the sky, I'm still alive

Evil spirit will not win, cannot win, shall not win
When the saints go marching in,
marching in, marching in
Left, left, left, right, left
Left, left, left, right, left
When your death comes marching in
Left, left, left, right, left
Left, left, left, right, left
When the saints go marching in
Incinerate and recreate
You have brought this upon yourselves
Masticate and desolate
Sewn shut mouths with nothing to tell
Time has come to wear His crown
Blessed are they to be lied upon
Deny The Word, embrace the war
Celebrate the scorned

Rivers are dry, there is no water left
Blinded by visions of life after death
I think I'm going slightly mad
Ask forgiveness at my feet
Who are you to be the one
to decide what I have done
Ask forgiveness at my feet
Who are you to sentence me
I don't believe in death penalty
Deletion of the light within
is a reason for mankind to sin
For I am Vengeance, the one you fear
Hear us summon darkness and despair
Through the gateways I guide the hordes
Prepare for eternal war
Finalizing the greater plan with the slaughter
we bring to Man
Inside my beating heart lies grief
All of mankind is my disease
Consuming light and will to live
It's never too late to forgive
Heaven weeps tears of blood

They vanish in the sands of time
What once was yours will now be mine
The cries are futile
We've traveled down this path before
You are forgiven but not forlorn

My spit burns like acid in the eyes of The Traitor
I'm destined to ruin the work of your Creator
My spit burns like acid in the eyes of The Traitor
I'm destined to ruin the work of your Creator
Be one with the light of your Lord and Savior
Stand by his side, The Great Cold Betrayer
Your God is irrelevant, His kingdom's a farce
His paradise is obsolete, I am The Great Wrath
Paradise can be deceitful
Wasted hopes and buried dreams
Masquerades and broken hearts
Are buried in the halls of blasphemy
We are opposers of humanity,
the bringers of all light
The trumpets sound for the final call,
the victory is in sight
So reads our message, so reads our elegy
We revel in the afterglow of the purgatory ecatsay

There are no trumpets, no victory in sight
There is no laughter in the glory of the fight
The broken wings of passion must be repaired
There can be no grand rebirth as long as you are here

Solo: Lasse Johansson

Listen to the heartbeat of the universe
I keep trying to fight but I'm cursed
Listen to the screaming voices in your soul
Raping my mind, raping my soul, gaining control
It cuts like a knife in my heart

I'm going back to the start
I have to reboot my soul
The only way to be whole
The war continues, peace diminished
Let me tell you, I can't breathe in
The Valley of Death
I gaze into the sky, this might be my last breath
The war continues, peace diminished,
this is my last call
I can't breathe in The Valley of Death
I gaze into the sky, this might be my last breath
Ravishing vengeance, I am your downfall

A declaration of war for centuries to come
Our manifest of lunacy, our legions come at dawn
Behold the massacre in The House of God
You will never see your Savior reborn
You have been bleeding for me for far too long
It's time to resurrect what's long been gone
The eternal salvation and its bloodsoaked wrath
Heaving Earth, grotesque rebirth
The eternal redemption and its bloodsoaked wrath
Heaving Earth, undo the rebirth

Solo: Lasse Johanssen

One pair of footprints in the sand
You can still reach my hand
It's never too late to forgive
I'll give you one reason, all reasons to live
One pair of footprints in the sand
There used to be two pairs of footprints
I carry you in my open arms
One pair of footprints, my heart's beating
One pair of footprints, our hearts keep beating
'Til the end
