Sacred Rite Rip Lyrics

Rip Lyrics

In the space of time before me



Lies the passage of the dead



I met a man, he tried to warn me



'Close your eyes', is all he said



Following the man, I see the torture



A thousand victims lie in pain



Now I hear the voice of judgement



'Throw them all into the flame!'







Who are you to murder the faithless?



Who are you to damn them all to Hell?



Do you know where they go when they leave you?



You'll pay the price for the souls that you sell







Are you the tyrant who cast them to the sea?



One day you'll be among the dead



And when they bury you beneath your enemy



Oh! Rest in peace







In the dark, they hide and tremble



Crying eyes that shake with fear



Fighting time, alone and frightened



And all at once, they disappear



Just a breath of life before them



stands the Man, the Mind, the Way



And with him go the chosen children



To their home so far away







One day you're a beggar, and the next day you're a King



But you'll never know the joy to hear your subjects when they sing



For you persecute and damn them 'till they curl up, there, and die



They call you Lucifer and you wonder why?







Total disintegration - Famine and disease



Ruthless domination - Bring them to their knees



Power to your people - Freedom to your slaves



Your torment and your evil have sent you to your grave







We find you guilty



What have you to say?



Take him away!
