Set a house on fire in my hometown
Who dares to come and get me?
Gonna lay low 'cause the house burnt down
Who else could burn it but me?

There ain't nothing left where it used to stand (nothing left where it used to stand)
Crawled in the window and cut my hand (cut my hand)
Set fire to the pews and I bask in the light (bask in the light)
Step outside in the middle of the night

And the church burn
And the church burn

God will frown upon me
Ardor and the only
Martyr that is lonely
Starter of the boneless

Met a man I killed in the morning
Who else could kill him but me?
The man dead, but came back as a warning
Who dares to kill him but me?

There ain't nothing left where it used to stand (nothing left where it used to stand)
Crawled in the window and cut my hand (cut my hand)
Set fire to the pews and I bask in the light (bask in the light)
Step outside in the middle of the night

And the church burn
And the church burn

God will frown upon me
Ardor and the only
Martyr that is lonely
Starter of the boneless

There ain't nothing left where it used to stand
Crawled in the window and cut my hand
Set fire to the pews and I bask in the light
Step outside in the middle of the night

God shall frown upon me (God shall frown upon me)
Ardor and the only (ardor and the only)
Martyr that is lonely (martyr that is lonely)
Starter of the boneless (starter of the boneless)

Same sign as before
Nothing's gonna be anymore (And the church burn)
Whatever be the cost (Got the feeling that I must)
Bring that flame to the cross (Bring that flame to the cross)

And the church burn

God shall frown upon me
Ardor and the only
Martyr that is lonely
Starter of the boneless
