[Verse] A collar white a soul in black The past won't die it pulls him back Through cypress trees where whispers creep The demon wakes the devil keeps [Chorus] Shadows crawl through the cracks in time His cross and blade both stained in crime Forged in fire bound by sin The war begins it never ends [Verse 2] His prayers are knives his faith a shield A chaplain's vow on cursed fields The devil grins the deal's been cast The holy fights the haunted past [Prechorus] The blood runs cold the moon burns red The living walk among the dead [Chorus] Shadows crawl through the cracks in time His cross and blade both stained in crime Forged in fire bound by sin The war begins it never ends [Bridge] Chains of guilt and chains of flame A soul at war it bears no name The righteous fall the wicked rise But he will fight until he dies
