Burnt Offerings lyrics
by Iced Earth



(Music : Schaffer, Shawver / Lyrics : Schaffer)In one last breathYou?ll feel this damned old soulYou?ll see the things I seeFor all these yearsOf pain and sacrificeYou?ll know the pain I knowOf all these thingsI offer unto youInfernal wisdom waitsNow unleashedLike the flames of hateMy sacrifice is madeEvery noteAnd every word you hearComes from deep withinAn angry soulThat twists and turns insidePondering this lifeCrimson eyesStaring through your liesAwakes the inner rageTake my knifeMake my sacrificeYou?re my burnt offeringSpill your bloodOffer me good omenMake the sacrifice, the hours close at handBurn your soulOffer me good omenTake your very life, this I commandDark shadows fall on this sacred groundWhere true evil lies, summon them to riseTake the traitors, thieves and liarsFeed them to the fireBut first, spread their blood aroundThe message will be foundWalk carefully my friends stab my back againA warning from the skyThese are not idle threats my friendsWe?re slaughtering the lambsTrue vengeance is on the riseThe traitors shall be damnedCast their bodies to the flamesSpill your bloodOffer me good omenMake the sacrifice, the hours close at handBurn your soulOffer me good omenTake your very life, this I command
