The Revelation Lyrics - Saviour Machine

[i. the blood of the lamb] 

can you feel the signs 

feel the signs 

are we still alive 

are we still alive 

numbers - he makes his way 

numbers - turn away 

take what you like 

stay with me, give me life 

scorch the men who wear the mark 

let the seas and rivers bleed 

into the air 

into the air 

the first born of the dead 

the mark upon his head 

turn away, turn away 

he who has an ear, let him hear 

drink the blood of the lamb 

[ii. the plague] 

and the first went 

poured his veil upon the earth 

and there fell a grievous sore 

breathe - dust to dust 

bleeding out of darkness 

a prayer for the dying 

they want his heart 

they want his mind 

his blood - his blood 

his blood flows to the river 

his blood can break the night 

to cry out for the answer 

in the light 

to roll across the land 

the wound we cannot mend 

breathe - dust to dust 

it drags you through the doorway 

scaling the walls between his eyes 

his eyes will hold the answer 

his eyes will shine above the night 

the morning after his love 

the system rapes you 

then creates you 

[iii. the veil of armageddon] 

one law has manifested by his hand 

his reign has opened darkness 

on the land 

they punish all believers 

they torture all the children 

of the light 

run to the hills 

or face your crucifixion 

our stomachs bleed with hunger 

our feet are cold, behold 

our souls cannot be sold 

the battlefield is cold and worn 

seven years 

the veil of armageddon 

cries it's tears 

the horsemen ride upon the night 

the rage of fear 

the veil of armageddon 

cries it's tears 

the prophets crucified 

behold, the horsemen lie 

the veil of armageddon 

cries it's tears 

the stage is set through all dimensions 

through the end 

the veil of armageddon 

cries it's tears 

his promise is revealed 

the heavens break the seals 

the veil of armageddon 

cries it's tears 

[iv. the wrath] 

standing in time, two worlds collide 

break the numbers, break the chains 

break the chains 

there's nowhere to hide, you must be tried 

face the torture, face the pain 

ride the train into the fire 

don't stand in the fire 

don't stand in the fire 

lord, what have they done 

denied the father 

denied the son 

lord, i see the end 

take the children 

in love, descends 

he's come to set us free 

[v. the resurrection] 

lord, take my hand, take my soul 

through the door 

lord i understand i'm but a man 

who knows the pain 

within your tears 

your tears of love 

your tears of pain 

they rain upon me 

as the millions 

meet their fate 

lord, i need to see what lies beyond 

the great unknown 

the rays of heaven penetrate my soul 

to lift me through the door 

into the light, into the air 

beyond the fight, beyond the pain 

beyond the sun, beyond the rain 

i arise love descends upon the edge 

love descends upon the fortress 

love descends upon the soul 

surrounding as one 

one love is the answer 

one love is alive 

love lives through the channel 

love lives through the light 

do you believe in the power and glory 

the end is soon to pass 

and hell may now surround us 

and hell deceives the cast 

the door awaits you calling 

to set your spirit free 

and all the seals have opened 

for you to call on me 

all you little children 

are running from the door 

there's no need to run 

there's no need to hide 

there's no where to run 

there's no place to hide
