[Verse 1]

Standing beside an open grave

Your fate decided, your life erased

Your final hour has come today

Lit by the fire of your temples burning

And I will cut you down like I've done so many times

When blood is raining down it cuts a deep river

Now shine a light down onto the earth

And shake this gold dust out, out of the dirt

No saints beside me and no prayers to guide me

Sometimes bad can do some good

Sometimes bad can do some good

And spare no lives

For those who try me
(Rain down, heaven is falling)

Let it be understood
[Chorus]
