In Nomine Dei

In nomine Patris… Et Filii… Et Spiritus Sancti... Kill them all... [Verse 01] They carved Your name in iron and flame On banners soaked in fear Built altars out of broken bones And called the slaughter “faith sincere” They kissed the blade before it fell Confessed with blood-stained hands Forgiveness sold by those who ruled Heaven priced in promised lands [Female Vocals] If Your word is love and mercy Why does it echo through the screams? If You are light eternal Why does Your shadow burn our dreams? [Chorus] In nomine Dei We rise, we kill, we kneel, we pray In nomine Dei We wash our sins in souls betrayed In nomine Dei The faithful hands that pull the trigger In nomine Dei The lie grows holy… the blood flows thicker [Verse 02] They wrote Your will with trembling fists On pages torn from doubt Turned belief into a weapon Left no room for thinking out A god designed by human fear To bless the wars we crave If Heaven mirrors what we are Then Hell is what we gave [Female Vocals] How many saints are born from fire? How many truths are dressed as law? When men declare themselves divine Is this belief… or just a flaw? [Chorus] [Chorus] In nomine Dei We rise, we kill, we kneel, we pray In nomine Dei We wash our sins in souls betrayed In nomine Dei The faithful hands that pull the trigger In nomine Dei The lie grows holy… the blood flows thicker [Bridge – Latin Choir] (Solemn, choral) In nomine Dei qui non respondit Sub silentio caeli, terra ardet Peccatum nostrum sanctum vocamus Et mortem fidem proclamamus In nomine Dei qui non respondit Sub silentio caeli, terra ardet Peccatum nostrum sanctum vocamus Et mortem fidem proclamamus [Chorus] In nomine Dei We rise, we kill, we kneel, we pray In nomine Dei We wash our sins in souls betrayed In nomine Dei The faithful hands that pull the trigger In nomine Dei The lie grows holy… the blood flows thicker In nomine Dei In nomine Dei In nomine Dei [Outro] (Fading choir) In nomine… Hominis.
