Black Star Deceiver (feat. Devin Townsend) Lyrics
Black star whenever you're ready
you're much too far away!
By now your soul seems steady now crawl to the cross
Meanwhile time takes a turn
-I'm feeling damned when you make it burn
Let's testify you're born to die
-You speak the truth and so do I
Don't give it away
-Don't give it away
don't try to nail
don't you try to nail
Don't try to nail!!
Black star whenever you're ready
you're much too far away!
By now your soul seems steady now crawl to the cross
[Chorus]
Black star deceiver kills it all
THe sun lies waiting for a call
You seem to be a fatal one
come watch me preach under the gun
I'm down and out, so down and out!
Black star whenever you're ready
you're much too far away!
By now your soul seem steady now crawl to the cross
[Chorus]
Black star deceiver kills it all
The sun lies waiting for a call [Repeat]
[1st Lead Frenning]
[2nd Lead Wichers]
Take me away, I'm in distress
Oh grand deceiver put me to rest
I was never in pain, sick or insane
So hear me now you're the one I blame!
Meanwhile time takes a turn
-I'm feeling damned when you make it burn
Let's testify you're born to die
-You speak the truth and so do I
Don't give it away
-Don't try to nail!
Black star whenever you're ready
you're much too far away!
By now your soul seem steady now crawl to the cross
[Chorus]
Black star deceiver kills it all
The sun lies waiting for a call [Repeat]
you're much too far away!
By now your soul seems steady now crawl to the cross
-I'm feeling damned when you make it burn
Let's testify you're born to die
-You speak the truth and so do I
Don't give it away
-Don't give it away
don't try to nail
don't you try to nail
Don't try to nail!!
you're much too far away!
By now your soul seems steady now crawl to the cross
THe sun lies waiting for a call
come watch me preach under the gun
I'm down and out, so down and out!
you're much too far away!
By now your soul seem steady now crawl to the cross
The sun lies waiting for a call [Repeat]

Well, from what I can gather, it seems like a foreshadowing of what many refer to as '2012', or the planetary alignment in December 2012.
During that time, the planets will align and create a solar eclipse. Some believe that 'Planet X' aligns with the rest of the planets, and it is the "Black Star" or the hidden sun of our solar system. It is in shadow at all times (allegedly)
"Black star deceiver kills it all...the sun lies waiting for a call."
The sun is waiting for God's call to usher in the end of the planet. The black star that is not visible is understood to bring the downfall of the planet, in a frenzy of weather and geological problems, killing off the human race (or reducing it to shambles)
Makes a lot more sense than assuming someone would call 'God' a 'black star deciever'...even satanists view God as 'good and pure' and merely dislike good, pure things, so why would they call him a deceiver which is what they call their master, satan?
Doesn't make much sense, but I could be wrong. If they don't know much about Abrahamic religion, they wouldn't know that so yeah. lol
This is the most reliable comment, nice! I see it as you. probably the song refers to the Planetary alignment or, in a less specific way, to a Metaphoric eclipse that is the eclipse of Mankind

@justinroane I agree, it is actualy dumb to refer to god as black star (rather than sun for example.). but probably because the name black\dark star has it's known usage

I dont know what this song is about,but Devin is really good on it,and so is Strid.I hated this song the first time I heard it, but now its another classic!
I feel like he's talking to God, God being the Deceiver. He refers to "the Hands of the Deceiver" in Silent Bullet, too.
Some lines sound like references to crucifixions with "don't you try to nail" and "now crawl to the cross"
I think this is the best song on the CD. I just looked it up cuz of you guys comments. I had no idea Devin Townsend had a hand in this song, I couldn't tell it was him!! Doesn't surprise me though. Devin Townsend deserves more money, he should be more famous wtf.
I have have no idea what this song means, but it sounds so awesome!
yes, hes telling god to take him away, gods house is shit
