HEAVEN SHALL BURN
- Like Gods Among Mortals Lyrics / with translationsThere is no peace to find and
empty words of regret fade away,
As greed of gain has drowned all temperance,
There's nothing left to stem the rising blackness
This is the agony of human sympathy
Merchants of misery assumed control
leading a biased trail, the ruin of democracy
They sell the seeds of perdition
to the highest price
like gods among mortals they walk
the way of damnation
Deathmongers, elected and legitimised,
sitting in secret councils
corrupted henchmen, no beholder
Fraternity is wiped from the face of this earth
They sell the seeds of perdition
to the highest price
like gods among mortals they walk
the way of damnation
empty words of regret fade away,
As greed of gain has drowned all temperance,
There's nothing left to stem the rising blackness
This is the agony of human sympathy
Merchants of misery assumed control
leading a biased trail, the ruin of democracy
They sell the seeds of perdition
to the highest price
the way of damnation
Deathmongers, elected and legitimised,
sitting in secret councils
corrupted henchmen, no beholder
Fraternity is wiped from the face of this earth
They sell the seeds of perdition
to the highest price
like gods among mortals they walk
the way of damnation
