Not Far From Judgment Day

The preachers and the priests, the animals and beasts
All answer to the wicked one who calls us to the feast
Those who still resist, like those lost to the mist
Are soon to fall to slaughter if they refuse evil's bliss

The sheep all led astray, not far from Judgment Day
Born to live in Heaven but now damned to turn away
The children of these men, born into this sin
All hope of their redemption stolen by the bonds of kin

And now forevermore, he stands inside the the door
Welcoming the twisted souls of those who once adored
That merciless white ghost, who now he hates the most
Who turned his back on him and cast him from the holy host

The sheep all led astray, not far from Judgment Day
Born to live in Heaven but now damned to turn away
The children of these men, born into this sin
All hope of their redemption stolen by the bonds of kin
