Song lyrics

Through centuries
Leading their wars
Armed with crucifixes
Hardened with dogmas

Ravaging
Cursing
And murdering every Proteus

I heard faith is a weapon
To protect or kill?

If you want me
Find me a faith
Not raised from ruins
Find me a god
With non dirty hands

And I will be your
I will be your
Assassin

Eternal struggle
Exchange of souls
Seven billions of souls
And there is no free trade

If god is aware
Who is the businessman?

Innocent merchant
With familiar face
Is kindly trying
To strike a bargain

Priceless
Currency
Salvation for sale

A unique offer?!
Who likes fairy tales?

Instinct calls for destruction
Prayers will muffle their screams
Good lord will drink this blood
Every divinity demands sacrifice

Every sacrifice needs
Divine purposes
This is Blood Mantra
A universal rite

Rite!

Divided by symbols
Possessed by laws
Throats cut for power
Rebels choked on their blood

Temples carved in red stone
Altars from looted gold
Sanctification by slaughter
Absolution by doom

Saviours impaled on their thrones
The reaper's dancing around
Vicious circle rolls on

I see the cultures
Fed by the same earth breast
I see the races
Watered by the same earth veins

I see all the chosen nations
Sharing the same breath as me

I saw civilisations burnt
Their blood soaked into this earth

I saw gods raised from their ashes
Under different names

I saw devouring hate
Driven by fear of otherness
