Great American Ghost - Altar Of Snakes Lyrics

Great American Ghost Lyrics

"Altar Of Snakes"

No priests, no peace, no innocence
No one is truly Heaven-sent
Locked away behind Heaven's gate
We only know the hell that we create

We are so alone
Simply waiting for the rapture
The dying light is fading
We are so alone
Waiting for the rapture
Destruction is our fate
Make praise to the altar of snakes

Another sacrificial lamb
Another back broken by the lashes
Tear the terror from my flesh
Each breath that passes
One step closer to death

The ash beneath our feet
Unhallowed ground
The followers bend the knee
Unhallowed crown
We are the damned

Entombed in chaos
Swallowed by hate (Swallowed by hate)
We only know the hell that we create

We are so alone
Simply waiting for the rapture
The dying light is fading
We are so alone
Waiting for the rapture
Destruction is our fate
Make praise to the altar of snakes

Make praise to the altar of snakes
