"God in Fire" Lyrics

 * Gone in a second
 * Ultimate destruction
 * Gods are warring
 * Sorrow never-ending
 * Endless chaos
 * For an eternity
 * Welcome to the abyss


 * Backwater town where nothing happens
 * Don't let disguises fool you
 * Evil is coming from everywhere
 * Destroying﻿ all that we believe is good


 * My mother's ghost still haunts me now
 * Fortune abandoned by God
 * Nothing can bring her back to me
 * Now I will seek to rage heaven's doors


 * There is no mercy, compassion in the world
 * Embrace the chaos
 * For in the end that is All
 * Now the universe is broken, lost its force
 * Turn your back on all you have loved
 * For it is


 * Gone in a second
 * Ultimate destruction
 * Gods are warring
 * Sorrow never-ending
 * Endless chaos
 * For an eternity
 * Welcome to the abyss


 * Creation desperate
 * Waiting for a
 * Miracle to transcend all war
 * Watch how the bloodlust of the divine
 * Throw out its hatred for all time


 * There is no mercy, compassion in the world
 * Embrace the chaos
 * For in the end that is All
 * Now the universe is broken, lost its force
 * Turn your back on all you have loved
 * For it is


 * Gone in a second
 * Ultimate destruction
 * Gods are warring
 * Sorrow never-ending
 * Endless chaos
 * For an eternity
 * Welcome to the end, to the abyss


 * End as beginning
 * And so it will be
 * Alpha Omega
 * The end thou shalt see


 * {Gone in a second}
 * {Gods are warring}


 * Gone in a second
 * Ultimate destruction
 * Gods are warring
 * Sorrow never-ending
 * Endless chaos
 * For an eternity
 * Welcome to the end, to the abyss
