Artist/Band: Lamb of God
Lyrics for Song: As The Palaces Burn
Lyrics for Album: Killadelphia [2005]



The fiends have gagged a generation of pacified fools

Bound by our greed a nation enslaved as corporate tools

Arise and raze the legacy of their lies

To realize that this in itself is an ascension

Towards the day we revolt



As the seeds you've cast away take hold

War will be born

Rejoice, the age of the fall has begun

We'll dance as the palaces burn



A shot gun blast into the face of deceit

You'll gain your just reward

We'll not rest until the purge is complete

You will reap what you've sown

My redemption lies in your demise



In such a world as this does one dare to think for himself?

The paradox of power and peace will destroy itself

To know the truth and live in fear of no man

To realize that this in itself is an ascension

Toward the day we revolt



As the seeds you've cast away take hold

War will be born

Rejoice, the age of the fall has begun

We'll dance as the palaces burn, burn, burn, burn



My redemption, redemption lies in your demise

Rejoice, the age of the fall has begun

We'll dance as the palaces burn
