Covenant of pure corruption

sink my teeth deep into you

Solemn oath of sheer destruction

Nightmare, through and through



In that hour - I'll devour

Hope is swallowed up in Pain

taste the venom - feel the power

coursing through my veins



I'm corruption

I'm destruction, through and through



Trust in me... for I will set you free

with a Serpent's Kiss

with a Serpent's Kiss



Be my lights and I won't stray - make me beg;

make me pray

Tell me when to laugh or cry - when to live

and when to die



Forgotten and betrayed

Rotting and decayed

left to wither - without a voice

left to slither - without a choice



[solo]



Crucifier - spitting fire

say your little empty prayers

This empire - growing higher

To this spite I swear



Sharp tongue severs - like a razor

swimming in a sea of rage

Vindicators - masqueraders

all the world's my stage



I devour

I empower - god of pain



Trust in me... for I will set you free

with a Serpent's Kiss

How could it come to this?
