Crucifixion, peasants bound to the cross

Heartless judgement, tyrannical laws

Among the jurists pangs of conscience arise

Conspiracy begins, the crucifier must fall



Assassination was attempted but failed

The conspirators are captured and jailed

Enraged by the plot now he vows his revenge

Hunt them down, seek their death, merciless



Collaborators face a summary trial

They are guilty there can be no denial

Convicted plotters face the hammer and nail

The traitors will be punished, the traitors will die



Their compunction, a sentence of death

Thoughts of mercy are replaced by dread

Punishment for traitors, swift and severe

Kill them all, they will die, crucify



Avenged, the crucifier has returned to kill

Vengeance, the betrayers bound and hung by nails

Avenged, the crucifier has returned to kill

Revenge, their betrayal only brought them hell



Punctured by piercing, the beam dripping blood

As a deterrent they are left there for months

Their agonizing deaths will serve to warn the rest

Betrayers will be hunted, betrayers will die



Wretched traitors, sun cooking their flesh

Rotting slowly they're begging for death

Transfixed by iron only bones will remain

He will hunt, hell's pursuit, execute



Avenged, the crucifier has returned to kill

Vengeance, the betrayers bound and hung by nails

Avenged, the crucifier has returned to kill

Revenge, their betrayal only brought them hell



No remorse for their deaths

No one will be spared from this fate

Hammer spikes through their hands

Penetrate the soles of their feet



Plant the stakes in the ground

Raise the crosses of the condemned

Proclaim judgement with blood

Triumph for the killers of men

Avenged, the crucifier has returned to kill

Avenged, the crucifier has returned to kill

Revenge, their betrayal only brought them hell



Avenged, the crucifier has returned to kill

Vengeance, the betrayers bound and hung by nails

Avenged, the crucifier has returned to kill

Revenge, their betrayal only brought them hell
