The hour of reckoning is upon us
Darkness engulfs the skies
In Gods, we place our mistrust
From this light, darkness will rise


Count your sins infinite
"Burn down those holy shrines!"
Them Gods in their heavenly abode
Watching behind their broken lines


"O master, dark lord!", they cry
"Come forward and take us
We don't want to see the light
Lead us to abyss through the gates of rust"


The skies shuddered, and
Men fell to their knees
The dark cloak embraced by
The first unholy priest


He crackled at the mass
Raising all their blood-filled glass
The temples of Gods toppled fast
Dark shadows upon them cast


The Gods were baffled
Men began to feast
The world burned and faded away
Crumbling beneath their feet


The devil sneered at their revolt
Angels cried as heavy rain poured
Donned his best attire
Among mortals, Satan appeared


As he looked up to the Gods petrified
Spread his wings shining bright
The men gasped, animals trembled
At the head of the table, he took a seat


As the priest kissed his ring
Went down to bend
The devil revealed a gift
And the Archangel descend


"Rise, my servant", Lucifer said
Pointed the dagger to his chest
The Archangel held the dark soul
As the blade pierced his body whole
The clouds tore, the body fell on devil's feet
