Baptized In Blood Lyrics
Under command
A new-born child
Submerged in blood
The dead they smile
Growing possessed
Burning inside
A bloody feast for us tonight
The way of death
Is growing hear just take my hand
Skies grow black
Unholy corpses upon their land
The dead they gather around
Praising the child they found
Possessed, the child shall kill
The future is now revealed
Baptized in blood
Destined to burn
Baptized in blood
Reborn they'll learn
Baptized in blood
Reborn they'll learn
Gather around
Watch and see
A new creation
Of misery
Taking the place
Of the elderly dead
Forbidden ways
Now in his head
The way of death
Is growing hear just take my hand
Skies grow black
Unholy corpses upon their land
The dead they gather around
Praising the child they found
Possessed, the child shall kill
The future is now revealed
Baptized in blood
Destined to burn
Baptized in blood
Reborn they'll learn
Baptized in blood
Reborn they'll learn
Baptized in blood
Destined to burn
Baptized in blood
Reborn they'll learn
Baptized in blood
Reborn!
(*some lyrics are missing in the chorus*)
A new-born child
Submerged in blood
The dead they smile
Growing possessed
Burning inside
A bloody feast for us tonight
Is growing hear just take my hand
Skies grow black
Unholy corpses upon their land
Praising the child they found
Possessed, the child shall kill
The future is now revealed
Destined to burn
Baptized in blood
Reborn they'll learn
Baptized in blood
Reborn they'll learn
Watch and see
A new creation
Of misery
Taking the place
Of the elderly dead
Forbidden ways
Now in his head
Is growing hear just take my hand
Skies grow black
Unholy corpses upon their land
Praising the child they found
Possessed, the child shall kill
The future is now revealed
Destined to burn
Baptized in blood
Reborn they'll learn
Baptized in blood
Reborn they'll learn
Destined to burn
Baptized in blood
Reborn they'll learn
Baptized in blood
Reborn!

This song seems like it's about vampires.
"A bloody feast for us tonight" Vampires drink blood.
"Skies grow black" Vampires can only walk in the night.
"Unholy corpses upon their land" Vampires are basically walking dead.
"Baptized in blood" They come to life by drinking blood.
"Destined to burn" Burning is the only way they die.
I agree that this song is about vampires. It makes sense, and it befits the subject matter of the rest of the album: tongue-in-cheek blood and gore :P swish
the song sounds like it is about an antichrist since it mentions a child that "shall kill." the child being baptized in blood is a mockery of jesus' baptizing. "The future is now revealed" probably means that the world is "Destined to burn".
This song is about a cottage cheese who becomes famous for writing a pop song. He performs it in every country and decides to write an album called The Inflatable Cheese. It is a huge hit and gets to number one in every country simultaneously. After a few months he releases his second album called Women Of Britain Say No. Unfortunately nobody in the whole world buys the album and he is fired by his record company. He is stirred into a curry and curdles.
