The Serpent’s Fall (Metal)

[Intro] The war rages inside these veins But the blood of the Lamb still remains [Verse 1] Whispers in the dark, they call my name Sweet poison on my tongue, feeding the flame Flesh is screaming, chains are tightening Demons laughing while my soul is fighting Every hit, every hit, every lustful lie Pulls me deeper where the hollowed souls die I see the mirror, the man I hate A slave to desire, sealed in my fate [Pre-Chorus] I feel the fire The war inside Between the spirit And the suicide [Chorus] THIS IS WAR! WAR AGAINST THE FLESH! Sin is screaming But I’ll never rest! Desire drags me Addiction breaks my bones But the cross is calling I’m not alone! [Verse 2] Nights of weakness, mornings full of shame Chasing shadows, playing Satan’s game The needle, the bottle, the touch, the high All lies from the father of the lie He promises pleasure, delivers the grave Turns kings into beggars, free men into slaves But I remember the nails in His hands The spear in His side, the blood on the sand [Pre-Chorus] The tempter’s voice grows louder still But greater is the One who breaks the seal! [Chorus] THIS IS WAR! WAR AGAINST THE FLESH! Sin is screaming But I’ll never rest! Desire drags me Addiction breaks my bones But the cross is calling I’m not alone! [Bridge] I’m crawling through the ashes of my past Every chain You shatter, every lie You cast The devil thought he had me in his grip But Your resurrection flipped the script [Breakdown] I cast you down! (I cast you down!) Serpent, bow! (Serpent, bow!) Your grip is broken! (Your grip is broken!) My soul awoken! (My soul awoken!) GET BEHIND ME! GET BEHIND ME! I am not your slave! I am not your slave! Blood bought! Blood bought! Devil, hear me now [Final Chorus] THIS IS WAR AND I HAVE WON! By the blood Of God’s only Son! Desire is dead Addiction is dust In Jesus’ name In Jesus I trust! [Outro] You lose I win Because of the cross I WIN!
