Raped by the Light of Christ - At the Gates

When yellow dies under velvet thoughts,

Blood-bubbles nestled in thorns

I have traveled through suns,

And the darkness of the end

Now I surrender to the void

And join with the pulse of the universe

The world burns with worms of fire

The world burns

The beauty in twisted darkness,

Raped by the light of Christ

We were not born to follow

We don’t need your guiding light

I tear the skies with my bare hands,

There is no death for me The world burns with worms of fire

Sun or animal, star or beast

Alone all the way to the heart of Christ

I’m free to die when I wish

I’m born from scarlet songs,

And when the time is right,

I shall forever walk alone

The beauty in twisted darkness,

Raped by the light of Christ

Worlds end, through a thousand suns
