This song is about the persecution of Middle Eastern Christians.
Darkness fills you in the dead of night
Cannot reveal the book of ages
What you love is heresy divine
But the way is lit by the muzzle flash
Solitude is all you'll ever have
The king is covered in the blood of belief
The path to heaven is laden with bodies
And not caring who dies for his cause
I've known for all these years
Yet they keep me confined in my mind
Imprisoned by these soldiers to hate
Press the barrel against my heart for truth
And they render us eternal slaves
Slaves to the unspeakable
I cannot be the representitive of Him
For the price is the pain of death
My eyes will never see the golden streets
When so many say they don't exist
Forever more they burn
Evermore they die
Forever I will reign in blood
Ever still they lie
Escalate the war, escalate the stakes
Reconfine the sickness, redistribute lies
We will not be silent, we will not
This is never over, we are not broken
Imprisoned by these soldiers to hate
Press the barrel against my heart for truth
And they render us eternal slaves
Slaves to the unspeakable
We will not be silent!
We will not be silent!
