Lyrics

[Verse 1]
1994: Corruption. Racism. Hate
The Church has failed
If Jesus came down
He'd be shot
[Verse 2]
I am the man that defends all things profane
6,000 years is the time that I shall reign
And with a grin drank the blood of holy swine
Impurity made the blood turn into wine
[Chorus]
Old man, dead hand
If only in their insanity
The lie feeds off their greed
Jesus wept
[Verse 3]
I am the pain that feeds off your weaknesses
A sickening born of hate not of the blessed
And with that time I will crush all things you prey
Destroying all from the known to the arcane
[Chorus]
Old man, dead hand
If only in their insanity
The lie feeds off their greed
Jesus wept
[Verse 4]
Burn my eyes and try to blind me
Bury me so they won't find me
Try to suck my power empty
Got no crown of thorns on me
[Verse 5]
So burn my eyes and try to blind
Bury me so they won't find
Try to suck my power empty
You got no crown of thorns on me
[Verse 6]
So burn my eyes and try to blind
Bury me so they won't find
Try to suck my power dry
You got no crown of thorns on me
Me
[Chorus]
Old man, dead hand
If only in their insanity
The lie feeds off their greed
Jesus wept
