The Erection of the Cross Songtext
von Bode Preto

You keep in silence
While carrying your cross
Who are you to live and to talk about love?
The forces
I feel
But your God I deny

The cross is prepared in front of your eyes
Penetrate your flesh with the nails from the past
Do you feel the love as you die like the worst?
Cruelty with delight I am the son of the night

Unbearable abyss
That from us you are divided
Innocence was lost
And I know what I do
Relentless we are
On the total destruction of you


Where are your friends, your so-called brothers?
What remains now is the women and your mother
Why are they loyal and stand till the end?
I see that you sinner were copulating with them

Sinner

You deserve now total humiliation
In front of their eyes your material damnation

Sinner

You king of the kings
You keep in silence
Forsaken by your father
Make us believe that you are the one
You king of nothing

Christus
Rex verminous

This is our world there′s no place for you
If you came to save us, I command you to do
No miracle I see in your nightmare in blood
You must cry out the agony of the doomed
Scream like a pig
Scream in your time to succumb
