lyrics

No one asked him to die just to put me to shame
To burden me with guilt and suffer in vain
I don't need his forgiveness, I need to survive
For I know that God doesn't care in the absence of light

I won't eat his flesh, I won't drink his blood
Won't pray for salvation to an uncaring God
No, I won't eat or drink from the body of Christ
The King of the Jews is the king of lies
And God doesn't care in the absence of light

But Lucifer carries a torch
And guides the way through the night
My crippled black heart for the Lord of the Flies

I won't go through hell just to go to heaven
No, I won't go through hell just to go to heaven
His kingdom come
My will be done

I won't kneel for no God, won't kneel for no king
And I won't be ashamed that I'm not without sin
And in my darkest hour, I won't turn to Christ
For I know that God doesn't care in the darkness

But Lucifer carries a torch
And guides the way through the night
My crippled black heart for the Lord of the Flies

I won't go through hell just to go to heaven
No, I won't go through hell just to go to heaven
His kingdom come
My will be done

His kingdom come
My will be done
