The Second Coming

Lies ?
Deceit ?
Fables ?
Hypocrisy ?

Beardless men arrived on northern shores
They came from the Saxon lands
With golden relics in their hands
Collecting souls for their god

The heralds of a simple faith
Believe in Him or burn
Convert before it is too late
The year thousand; where is Christ?

The Second Coming is a lie
The old gods still rule the North!
Their god was fed with gold and silver;
Taken from the misguided common man

Soon his temples were erected
All built by Nordic hands
Some were abducted by loyal men
To be hung under a silent moon

Piercing arrows sealed their fate
Their corpses left for Odins ravens!
The Second Coming is a lie
The old gods still rule the North!

In distant lands his corpse decayed
This Nazarene messiah called ?God?
Flesh rotted away, like any mortal man
His brittle bones, buried in sand

Now his pathetic slaves remain
Waiting for the trumpets that will never sound
Devoting their lives to a fool long gone
Who?s resting in a shallow grave!

The Second Coming is a lie
The old gods still rule the North!
