[Verse 1: Phil Druyor & Ben Duerr, both]
A bitter taste from his soul as I realize
I destroyed him pure of sin
The birth of the paladin
The martyr dies with a gaze of my pious eyes
Antimatter vaporized everything as I decline
Crown of thorns digging deep into the bone
Slide around my throat and release my soul
Burn the church
The light will guide us home
The smoke signals hope
Set fire to my tomb

[Chorus: Phil Druyor & Ben Duerr]
Man forsaken me within the fire
And the archers take their aim
Holy nails will fly
Impale my wrists with golden arrows and prepare me for the flame
Crucify
I ignite myself upon the stake, a sacrifice for man's salvation
Leave me to die
Here I burn, and here I die
I'm not a god, for I am annihilation

[Verse 2: Phil Druyor & Ben Duerr]
To cast away the crown is to forfeit the throne
Giving man a second chance
A chance to rebuild his home
I will lead archangels with me to the grave
Stripped a demon of his pride
Lightning, strike me from the sky
[Chorus: Phil Druyor & Ben Duerr]
Man forsaken me within the fire
And the archers take their aim
Holy nails will fly
Impale my wrists with golden arrows and prepare me for the flame
Crucify
I ignite myself upon the stake, a sacrifice for man's salvation
Leave me to die
Here I burn, and here I die
I'm not a god, for I Am Abomination

[Breakdown: Ben Duerr]
No gods, no kings
No worship, break free
No gods, no kings
No worship, break free
No gods
