Burning Scripture - Countess

Lies spoken since the dawn of time

Though none so great as the first

The first lie of the one god spoken

By a mad king in his power thirst

The first lie was followed by many

In measly verses all written down

Collected in books called scripture

The awful lies gained great renown

Scripture was spread far and wide

And cults of the one god flourished

By self-proclaimed prophets of the lie

Genrations minds by deceit nourished

Burning scriptur, crushing lies

No verse of holy writ shall remain

Burning scripture, crushing lies

Righteous arrogance turned to shame

The vile cults enslaved the once free

Tried to do away with the gods of yore

Nearly banished the gods of our blood

Almost vanquished was the ancient lore

Yet embers of the holy fire remained

Kindled again to incinerate the one god

Those true to their ancestral beliefs

Will reforge the past in battle and blood

Burning scripture, crushing lies

No verse of holy writ shall remain

Burning scripture, crushing lies

Righteous arrogance turned to shame

The lie of the one god exposed for all

The pure again worship the gods of old

Everywhere the one’s house is torched

The strong return to the heathen fold

After millennia at last the lie has fallen

Its books are burnt its preachers slain

Our battle cries turn to roars of victory

Scripture’s followers endure horrible pain

Burning scripture, crushing lies

No verse of holy writ shall remain

Burning scripture, crushing lies

Righteous arrogance turned to shame
