Devout on all you really feel
Am Em D
I've seen the monster's gleaming teeth

Cast down the stars on to the earth

As a virgin mother's giving birth

Am Em D
The mountain called my father new
Am Em D
I took his hand, I shed a few
Am Em D
To, to his heart he raised the blame
Am Em D
No fucking way I ever came
Am Em D
All those fought back and their sons raised kings and born with the swords of their fathers
Am Em D
In ancient tomes spoke wraith and love coloured my eyes
Am Em D (2x)
Am Em D
Perfect and painless world I see
Am Em D
No crucifying kings of peace
Am Em D
The land devours the lion's young
Am Em D
Devout on you'll be on the road
