I have fought so hard and I tried as I might, but I cannot win this fight There's a shadow creeping in my soul a monster, claw and bite Give in to madness, and the number of the beast Gaze in the abyss, and join in the feast Break the chains, open the gate I call the ordnance of sin Infernal fire, the engines of hate I feel the darkness within I'm returning now to the lands of my birth, in an answer to your call There's a darkness here, and a lust for death, as the serpent takes control Call out to demons, and the servants of the beast Oh fallen angels, I am your priest Break the chains, open the gate I call the ordnance of sin Infernal fire, the engines of hate I feel the darkness within And by our deeds we are agents of the Fall We are the curse of mankind And in this war that will swallow the Earth whole We'll leave destruction behind Give in to madness, and the number of the beast Gaze in the abyss, and join in the feast Break the chains, open the gate I call the ordnance of sin Infernal fire, the engines of hate I feel the darkness within Break the chains, open the gate Let the madness come in Infernal fire, the engines of hate Embrace the darkness within
