He paints the pictures
The prophecies of hate
They're not a figment in his mind
They tell our fate

We turn to him now
Retributor is his name
"Please guide us true
'Cause we believe in what you say!"

"The order should be sent beyond the stars and time."
And the Celestial Serpents strike
Strike!

Who'll be the brave one
Who'll send our message out?
"Good ol' trusty Judas will get it done
I have no doubt!"

He is the one to carry on
After the dawn
Walk in the ashes of the human race long gone

And he shall walk into the garden of the lost
And the Celestial Serpents strike
Strike!
Strike!
We're facing evil that is sent from above
This Devil lives in the skies
Now we must not believe our eyes but our hearts
For he's the master of lies

Call in the King and his men
We'll need the elite of them
Behold the leader of legions
Gather, assemble the warriors

Prepare, be ready
The day is soon here
Day when the dead shall arise, yeah-yeah
And so the dead shall arise, oh yeah, ow

The day the dead shall arise

And the Celestial Serpents strike!
