Sodom - Book Burning lyrics

Slashing the wantoness, grudging deeds

With hearts that have no right to beat

Whispering echoes forcasting my fate

From heaven to hell I spirit away

The shadow of wathers haunting my soul

Replacing my life for a handful of gold

The slings and the fetters of outrageous foes

Peremptory baseness where glory once shone

Losing the ground at the end of the light

Beheading myself no more power to fight

Horror beyond the unnatural fear

Reflection of lies so threatening near

Apathetic servants of the mighty evil

Rushing demise, blind decision

Exhaustion of my will

Habitual turning

Lifeless objects, peaceful symbols

Book burning

The scriptures of freedom devoured by fire

Flushes of anger immortal desire

Appeal to the gods is ceasing unheard

Lamentations sounded imploring absurd

My rage unleashed and my glare is reborn

Sunshine removed by a cold winterstorm

Deliver me god from this treacherous crowd

These crystal nights bring the life to nought

Losing the ground at the end of the light

Beheading myself no more power to fight

Horror beyond the unnatural fear

Reflection of lies so threatening near

Apathetic servants of the mighty evil

Rushing demise, blind decision

Exhaustion of my will

Habitual turning

Lifeless objects, peaceful symbols

Book burning
