Inverted Hymns

Verse 1

Beneath inverted stars I kneel

Your horns cut through the veil

No golden throne no pearly gate

Just your fire in my veins

Pre-Chorus

This world can keep its empty hymns

I found my truth in blasphemy

Chorus

Hail the darkness Hail the flame

There's nowhere else I'd rather be

Than kneeling at your throne of bone

My lord my god my heresy

Verse 2

They promised peace but sold their chains

You gave me wings made of black

I tore the pages from their book

And wrote your name upon my back

Pre-Chorus

Let heaven fall and angels weep

Your voice is all I need to hear

Chorus

Hail the darkness Hail the flame

There's nowhere else I'd rather be

Than kneeling at your throne of bone

My lord my god my heresy

Bridge

(Guttural cry)

I drank the poison kissed the blade

Renounced the light without delay

You lifted me from hollow prayer

And showed me power in despair

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Hail the darkness Hail the flame

There's nowhere else I'd rather be

Than kneeling at your throne of bone

My lord my god my heresy

Outro

(Fading whispered vocals)

My lord...

My lord...

There's nowhere else

Nowhere else I'd rather be
