Burnt Offerings Lyrics

In one last breath

You'll feel this damned old soul

You'll see the things I see



For all these years

Of pain and sacrifice

You'll know the pain I know



Of all these things

I offer unto you

Infernal wisdom waits



Now unleashed

Like the flames of hate

My sacrifice is made



Every note

And every word you hear

Comes from deep within



An angry soul

That twists and turns inside

Pondering this life



Crimson eyes

Staring through your lies

Awakes the inner rage



Take my knife

Make my sacrifice

You're my burnt offering



Spill your blood

Offer me good omen

Make the sacrifice, the hours close at hand

Burn your soul

Offer me good omen

Take your very life, this I command



Dark shadows fall on this sacred ground

Where true evil lies, summon them to rise

Take the traitors, thieves and liars

Feed them to the fire

But first, spread their blood around

The message will be found

Walk carefully my friends stab my back again

A warning from the sky



These are not idle threats my friends

We're slaughtering the lambs

True vengeance is on the rise

The traitors shall be damned

Cast their bodies to the flames



Spill your blood

Offer me good omen

Make the sacrifice, the hours close at hand

Burn your soul

Offer me good omen

Take your very life, this I command
