Lyrics
See the child, heโs pale and meager
He stokes the fire in pre-dawn darkness
The stars fell when he came into the world
This child was born in blood
His lovely mother died the night when he was born
And daddyโs former warmth was chilled by drink and scorn
Deep in his heart, a taste for mindless violence began to grow
He ran away and wandered far from home โtil he fell into a life replete with cruelty
Yet there was a part of him that yearned for something greater than this
Has God abandoned us? I hear nothing but silence
Am I a force for good? We know nothing but evil
Redness in the sky
The flaming tree will burn forever
Redness in the sky
Weโre drowned in blood with each meridian
Implicit with the coming apex
The fall is written on the wall
Would he succumb and give into the blood lust
Or rise above and kill the Judge, that mystic lord of war?
God has made a path for you to leave and then come back
So meet your fate and dance with him
Take the stage and slay the Judge
This night thy soul may be required
The choice is yours to dance or die
