Exterminating angel
With burning swords in hand
Cast out these snakes,these heathens
A judgment made, a sentence passed

You're not going to use us
You're not going to push us to the ground
You're not going to fool us
You're not going to turn us inside out

Your shallow beauty fading
While only bones remain
A blackest hearts procession
No love to give, you only take the light away

You're not going to use us
You're not going to push us to the ground
You're not going to fool us
You're not going to turn us inside out

You're not going to use us
You're not going to push us to the ground
You're not going to fool us
You're not going to smash our skulls and bones

Language is broken
The path is ferocious
Ascend to the highest
Through canyons of fire
Chaos surrounds us
Who comes against us?
As above so below

Until the light takes us
Until the light takes us
Until the light takes us
Until the light takes us
Save us
