lyrics

Verse 1
We must cleanse them from their vile corruption
with sword and sermon
False prophets lead them to their destruction
to crawl with vermin
We fought hard for our place above them
arcane policy
Our rule will not succumb to this mayhem
or apostasy

Chorus
Our place among their holy ones
shall not be contested by new blood, or their sons
Palaces have been raised in our names
and none shall take it away from us, or tamper with our games
We rule behind a veil of shadows, with might none can oppose

Verse 2
When our gods fail we will turn to others,
be they kind or not
Offering our loyalty as brothers,
retracing our plot
We remain in power with these prayers,
guiding the blinded,
as we must, for we’re the hierophants heirs
forever undead

Verse 3
And when the time is drawing near
our new lords word shall spread for all the world to hear
With time our grasp of power slips
but with sword and sermon we’ll alter their old scripts

Chorus
Our place among their holy ones
shall not be contested by new blood, or their sons
Palaces have been raised in our names
and none shall take it away from us, or tamper with our games
We rule behind a veil of shadows, with might none can oppose
