LYRICS

The walking dead steps on the gallows under a pale frozen sun
The axe it shines brave
One last pinch of smoke for his one last wish
Then on cold slab he’s sprawled out, hammered to death

He streams with blood
Torn to pieces skin detaches
Broken bones pierce the flesh
Thankful as the head’s finally put to rest on the block

The old master
He is the hand of God
The old bastard
For the blood of the Son in the year of the Lord

His old wrinkled hands shake
Above the victim’s neck, shapeless flesh in praise of death
Five more blows and in the end the head finally falls off

Another icy sunrise, another victim to erase
God’s blade’s gonna reap again
The hangman in the scarlet coat inflicts his torments
A warning the crowds repulse standing mute in trembling worship

After the head is severed from the rest of the corpse
He waves it to the crowd
They’ll bless a poor sinner’s soul with the sign of the cross

The old master
He is the hand of God
The old bastard
For the blood of the Son in the year of the Lord

The godly work’s been done, historians call this “restoration”
It is that bridge that delivered death to Rome
One last pinch of smoke for one last wish
For each of them joined hands conceals the dagger

The old master
He is the hand of God
The old bastard
For the blood of the Son in the year of the Lord
