Hell-bent intention
The more I come to grips
Maniacal possession
A need to get my fix
I can't tame the true beast
I can't douse the flame

Holy war
Defector
Cardinal sin
True mayhem

Traverse the threshold
With death-defying grace
A sacrilegious stronghold
I'll never lay to waste
I cannot stay dormant
I can't stay away

Holy war
Defector
Cardinal sin
True mayhem

Undisputed faith
Fighting for a cause
Question what is taught
Question ancient law
Take it to their chest
Take it on the chin
Take it to the hilt
Do it all again
All again

Beaming celestial
Hypnotic solar flare
Divine absolution
As the shepherd stares
I can't stop the screaming
I can't stop the screaming
I must be insane

Holy war
Defector
Cardinal sin
True mayhem
