Open your heart to the lord of light

Open your heart and mind and let him in

He holds the key to the throne of might

You are empty, say his name...

And let him in

All hail the dawn of a rising star

All hail the crowned and conquering child

Morning will come for you at last, no matter how far into night

You have strayed, say his name...

Welcome the child

A new world is crawling

From the ashes of the old

Two thousand years of guilt and fear

And the greatest lie ever told

Out of the wounded side of the dying god

Out of the sacred heart of the throttled hen

The blood is the life, the flowing milk for the infant god

The throne is empty, the cup is full...

He approaches and then...

He steps from the shadow

And he opens up his eyes

He spills the blood onto the throne

And hurls a curse up to the skies

I am the adversary and must remain the adversary
