lyrics

The Reckoning

(Verse 1a)
This world embraces the dark
Just like a long-lost friend
Forsaking all that seeks the light
As to prophesy the end

(Verse 1b)
Those we loved and adore
Have turned their back in assent
Only to sell their souls like whores
Deceiving the innocent to descent

(Pre-Chorus)
Push your will into the minds
Of those you try to rule
Service them with a Judas kiss
Bury the truth of your plan so cruel

(Chorus)
The day of reckoning
Your mask is ripped away
The day of reckoning
No more to be your prey
The day of reckoning
Fate has called your name
The day of reckoning
Suffer in eternal flame

(Verse 2a)
The veil has been torn away
You stand naked and exposed
No more lies and deceit
Your treachery now opposed

(Verse 2b)
Taking back what is ours
No longer a burden of pain
Times up for you now
Revenge for all those slain

(Pre-Chorus)
Push your will into the minds
Of those you try to rule
Service them with a Judas kiss
Bury the truth of your plan so cruel

(Chorus)
The day of reckoning
Your mask is ripped away
The day of reckoning
No more to be your prey
The day of reckoning
Fate has called your name
The day of reckoning
Suffer in eternal flame

(Bridge)
The body count will stop
Tears no longer fall
Fear has lost its hold
We’re tearing down the wall

(Alt-Chorus)
The day of reckoning
Now we’re seeing red
The day of reckoning
It all comes to a head
The day of reckoning
Oh, the blood you will shed
The day of reckoning
You’re already dead

(End-Chorus)
The day of reckoning
Your mask is ripped away
The day of reckoning
No more to be your prey
The day of reckoning
Fate has called your name
The day of reckoning
Suffer in eternal flame
