The Iron Mandate

Intro

Oh

No more masks

Rip the skin from the bone

Chorus

Sever the strings of the puppet king

Crushing the crown of the hollow man

Do what thou wilt

Whole of the law

Sever the strings of the puppet king

Crushing the crown of the hollow man

Do what thou wilt

Whole of the law

Verse 1

Empty rituals die

You rot beneath a fabricated sky

Finding the center

Building the temple within your own ribs

True Will screams louder than the sheep in the pen

True Will bleeds better than the ink on the page

Pre-Chorus

Not a game

Not a gift

Not a grace

Burn the blueprints of your prison

Chorus

Sever the strings of the puppet king

Crushing the crown of the hollow man

Do what thou wilt

Whole of the law

Sever the strings of the puppet king

Crushing the crown of the hollow man

Do what thou wilt

Whole of the law

Bridge

Look inside

Star among stars

Force and fire

Tearing the veil with bloodied fingers

Iron spirit rising from the ash

Flesh is temporary

Spirit is eternal

Kill the god you think you see

Verse 2

Stars align in the black

Walk the path where there is no turning back

Silent master calls

Iron hands break every barrier you built

Fulfilling the vision

Claiming the chaos

Pre-Chorus

Not a game

Not a gift

Not a grace

Burn the blueprints of your prison

Chorus

Sever the strings of the puppet king

Crushing the crown of the hollow man

Do what thou wilt

Whole of the law

Sever the strings of the puppet king

Crushing the crown of the hollow man

Do what thou wilt

Whole of the law
