This sunday morning the air was so thick you could carve it with a knife
The heat made the world shiver, at least for a moment of time
All of a sudden the streets fill with people, the mortals who'd come to die
Driven by some mystic force, the inborn will to revoke from life
Thousands and thousands men, women and young
Different yet all the same
Representatives of every perversion, mania and unjust
Preachers of blasphemy, coprophiliacs, incestous lovers of the dead
A carnival of repulsion, l***, madness and despair
From shadows they rise
The glimmer of steel, sharp sickles in skeletal hands
They've come from the very pits of hell, the reapers of the lambs
The terror from seeing the faces of death makes the mortals tremble and cry
As time's standing still, panicked they run
A glimpse of eternity the chase has begun
The panic in their eyes
The horror in their cries
Eternity caught in the wink of an eye
Death chasing the flock of mortals
The sun is imploding in darkness
Left is the colourless, ghastly light of death
The chase is over before it began, it's the mighty upheaval of time
For death is superior to every dimension, phantasmic and yet so real
Etched into the corneas of the mortals
is the image of bloodstained sickles of steel
This second will last 'til forever
Stricken by panic, this final page of their lives
So cold, so freezing and cold deep within
Pierced by a thousand swords of ice
Now the streets are empty
Of the horrors that have been, there's no trace
But the flock of mortals are suffering the eternal torment
of being chased by death
And death saw the panic in their eyes
And death heard the horror in their cries
Eternity caught in the wink of an eye
Death chasing the flock of mortals
The heat made the world shiver, at least for a moment of time
All of a sudden the streets fill with people, the mortals who'd come to die
Driven by some mystic force, the inborn will to revoke from life
Thousands and thousands men, women and young
Different yet all the same
Representatives of every perversion, mania and unjust
Preachers of blasphemy, coprophiliacs, incestous lovers of the dead
A carnival of repulsion, l***, madness and despair
From shadows they rise
The glimmer of steel, sharp sickles in skeletal hands
They've come from the very pits of hell, the reapers of the lambs
The terror from seeing the faces of death makes the mortals tremble and cry
As time's standing still, panicked they run
A glimpse of eternity the chase has begun
The panic in their eyes
The horror in their cries
Eternity caught in the wink of an eye
Death chasing the flock of mortals
The sun is imploding in darkness
