Testament - Burnt Offerings lyrics

[Music - Peterson, Skolnick] [Lyrics - Souza, Peterson] [Solo - Skolnick] Summoned to the house of seance To play the evil tarot cards To find out what our fate will bring us Before the war Approaching now the hour of tiamat Evil feelings in the air The chosen wait impatiently To find the rituals of power Come out of the fire Making the legacy known Takes its toll at last Now knowing when it strikes The endless feuding shows its fate The people are all shocked with fright They know the end is coming near It's time to fight The revolution holds on strong The armies have all met their match Entire world up in arms Destruction sees the spirits of anger Come up from the gallows Conjured my demons appear Summoned to my cast, prey this deadly ma** Takin by the fire you fail The world became a vast wasteland Survivors turn to cannibals k**ing everything in sight Warfare tonight The armies are all closing in The populations getting small Feelings are as cold as ice Survival names it's price Starting to burn The rape and violence grows high A kingdom will rise To rule with contempt They will surprise k** and repent The weakness in armies "Won't die" [Solo - Peterson] Leaving now the house of seance Speculating destiny Wonder if the cards were true Will wait to find out and will wait to see
