Old

I am the man that defends all things profane
6000 years is the time that I shall reign
And with a grin drank the blood of holy swine
Impurity made the blood turn into wine
[Chorus:]
Old man, dead hand
If only their insanity
The lie feeds off their greed
Jesus wept
I am the pain that feeds off your weakness
A sickening born of hate, not of the blessed
And with the time I will crush all things you prey
Destroying all from the known to the arcane
[Chorus]
Burn my eyes and try to blind me
Bury me so they won´t find me
Try to suck my power empty
Got no crown of thorns on me
So burn my eyes and try to blind me
Bury me so they won´t find
Try to suck my power dry
You got no crown of thorns on me
[Chorus]
