Burnt Offerings Lyrics by Testament

Burnt Offerings Lyrics

    Summoned to the house of seance
    To play the evil tarot cards
    To find out what our fate will bring us
    Before the war

    Approaching now the hour of tiamat
    Evil feelings in the air
    The chosen wait impatiently
    To find the rituals of power
    Come out of the fire
    Making the legacy known
    Predicted by the past
    Takes its toll at last
    Now knowing when it strikes

    The endless feuding shows its fate
    The people are all shocked with fright
    They know the end is coming near
    It's time to fight
    The revolution holds on strong
    The armies have all met their match
    Entire world up in arms
    Destruction sees the spirits of anger
    Come up from the gallows
    Conjured my demons appear
    Summoned to my cast, prey this deadly mass
    Taken by the fire you fail

    The world became a vast wasteland
    Survivors turn into cannibals
    Killing everything in sight
    Warfare tonight
    The armies are all closing in
    The population's getting small
    Feelings are as cold as ice
    Survival names its price
    Starting to burn
    The rape and violence grows high
    A kingdom will rise
    To rule with contempt
    They will surprise
    Kill and repent
    The weakness in armies
    'Won't die'

    Leaving now the house of seance
    Speculating destiny
    Wonder if the cards were true
    Will wait to find out and will wait to see
