Screeching Weasel - Gates Lift High Your Heads Lyrics

Screeching Weasel Lyrics

"Gates Lift High Your Heads"

Lightning flashes storm clouds
Roll in across the sea
Blow winds crack your cheeks and bring
All mankind to its knees
The evil that men do now dies with them
They're cursed and left eternally condemned

Gates lift high your heads tonight
Arise adorned in brilliant white
All your gods have faded
Step into long-awaited light
Gates lift high your heads tonight

An otherworldly fury bursts through the ominous sky
It rends the veil and shakes the earth as though the world must die
The screaming of the damned recedes the glorified ascend triumphantly in radiance
All we thought was real comes to an end

Gates lift high your heads tonight
Arise adorned in brilliant white
All your gods have faded
Step into long-awaited light
Gates lift high your heads tonight
Grow higher ancient doors tonight
