Testament - Burnt Offerings lyrics

Summoned to the house of seance

To play the evil tarot cards

To find out what our fate will bring us

Before the war

Approaching now the hour of tiamat

Evil feelings in the air

The chosen wait impatiently

To find the rituals of power

Come out of the fire

Making the legacy known

Predicted by the past

Takes its toll at last

Now knowing when it strikes

The endless feuding shows its fate

The people are all shocked with fright

They know the end is coming near

It's time to fight

The revolution holds on strong

The armies have all met their match

Entire world up in arms

Destruction sees the spirits of anger

Come up from the gallows

Conjured my demons appear

Summoned to my cast, prey this deadly mass

Taken by the fire you fail

The world became a vast wasteland

Survivors turn into cannibals

Killing everything in sight

Warfare tonight

The armies are all closing in

The population's getting small

Feelings are as cold as ice

Survival names its price

Starting to burn

The rape and violence grows high

A kingdom will rise

To rule with contempt

They will surprise

Kill and repent

The weakness in armies

"Won't die"

Leaving now the house of seance

Speculating destiny

Wonder if the cards were true

Will wait to find out and will wait to see
