s-s-s-s-s-s-s- s-n-n-a-a-a-a-a-aaaa-ake
s-s-s-s-s-s-s- s-n-n-a-a-a-a-a-aaaa-ake
You’ll get yours
Righteous justice will be done
By The Chosen One
When your head is crushed
By The Light Of The World

Secrete your silky death
From your poisonous fangs
Along with sorrow and pain
Countless numbers you have slain

Rule or ruin is your desire
Full of pride you don’t relent
You covet what’s on high
Behold the father of the lie

You keep changing yourself into an angel of light
Wagging your forked evil tongue blinding everyone
Dripping dark seductive words as you seek to twist the truth
Insidiously changing bad to good and good to all that’s bad
Tragicly, mankind has been had

s-s-s-s-s-s-s- s-n-n-a-a-a-a-a-aaaa-ake
s-s-s-s-s-s-s- s-n-n-a-a-a-a-a-aaaa-ake
s-s-s-s-s-s-s- s-n-n-a-a-a-a-a-aaaa-ake
You’ll get yours
Righteous justice will be done
By The Chosen One
When your head is crushed
By The Light Of The World

Rage up in your nostrils
You know your end is near
With roving obsidian eyes
You still crave more lives

But the gavel’s coming down
Your works have been revealed
Bit off more than you could chew
Your sentence will be true

s-s-s-s-s-s-s- s-n-n-a-a-a-a-a-aaaa-ake
s-s-s-s-s-s-s- s-n-n-a-a-a-a-a-aaaa-ake
s-s-s-s-s-s-s- s-n-n-a-a-a-a-a-aaaa-ake
You’ll get yours
Righteous justice will be done
By The Chosen One
When your head is crushed
By The Light Of The World

When your head is crushed
By the light of the world
 
Hey stonepiano, thanks for your read and your question. This song is based on the Bible. Jesus is refered to as the light of the world. The snake is satan. The very first prophesy in the bible is about satan bruising Jesus in the heel, (when He was put to death, but He was raised from the dead so it wasn't really death dealing permanetly, hence a bruise in the heel) then Jesus would bruise satan in the head (Permanant destruction). As far as crushing your head I hope I'm not conveying that in the lyrics. If I am, I'm way off base.
 
Judging from his last post, I think stonepiano was just on a roll ;) .


"By the chosen one" was my first clue, and the "angel of light" was the give away for me!

Good stuff. Me like!
 
aha! I should have known!

I tend to avoid bible stories like the plague though so it's none too surprising I didn't get it.

As an innocent and ignorant reader, it's sounds sadistic.

Would make a good revenge song, perhaps.
