The Wages of Sin ​

Lyrics By:
Erik Libbert
Music By:
Chad Hamlin & Erik Libbert
                                                                    
         The Son of God died for your sins
       But how easily you forget
              If told this sacrifice would be in vain
       I wonder if He’d do it over again
 
Your soul’s impure and there’s no hope for a cure
       You’ve traveled down the Path of Temptation
Now it’s too late to change your wicked ways
       Transgression’s led to your eternal damnation
When the clarion calls and the Angels fall
       You’ll be reborn into a world of sorrow
Never again will you wallow in sin
       The time you’re living on is borrowed
 
              Ignorance lost
                      No longer blind, you’ll see
              An unwilling witness
                      To the mystery
 
              Killing flames rain from the sky
       Extinction looms, Humanity’s decline
              Fuck your neighbors, save yourself
       Join the greedy in the Pits of Hell
 
              The Day of Judgment has arrived
                             Time to pay for your sins
              If you think you’re going to see the Pearly Gates
                             Well, you better fucking think again
 
              Now below, you finally see
       The price you’ll pay for the life you chose to lead
              God can’t hear you now, so, save your breath
       The Wages of Sin, it seems, is far worse than death
 
Your spirit’s stained black and there’s no turning back
       All your life you’ve given in to Temptation
Now you’ve run out of time, you’ve reached the end of the line
       Indulgence paved the way to your Damnation
When the Angels fell, they dragged you with them to Hell
       You’re adrift in a sea of sorrow
And as your atonement begins, for a lifetime of sins
       You realize there’ll be no more tomorrows
 
              Innocence lost
                      No longer pure, you’ll burn
              A penance in flames
                      Is your punishment earned
 
                     Punishment earned
              It’s your punishment earned
                     Burn, burn, burn
              It’s your punishment earned
                     Punishment earned
              It’s your punishment earned
                     Burn, burn, burn
              It’s your punishment earned
