Chord of Souls Lyrics

The preacher says to all his men: "I heard godly laughter - can it be the end?"
Well, I'm on fire, and he's so cold
I hear a godly laughter - let it be the end

Let it be the end, let it be the end

Won't need no conscience, let's steal this world
I hate your god's people who breed on earth
Over to the other side, I'm caught stepping out
Over to the other side - save your brothers now

Let it be the end
Eyes... eyes... eyes... eyes

All these men, these worthy men
In all my dreams, I hear godly laughter
Unleash your souls - who's faceless, knows
When I disclose - it´s not their god I'm after

Let it be the end
Believers, chord of souls
Let it be the end between us - chord of souls

Eyes... eyes... eyes... eyes

And I hate your country, and I hate your world
I hate your god's people who breed on earth
Over to the other side, I'm caught stepping out
Gotta reach in each and experience to tear my fucking heart out

The end, believers, let it be the end
The end, believers, Lord of souls
The end, believers, let it be the end
Let it be the end between us - Chord of souls

Let it end... let it end... let it end...

Oh, and let it leave us
Oh, and let it end

Eyes... eyes... eyes... eyes
No, no, no, no, no!

This song deserves quite a lot more comments.

Not as good as a few of the others, but it's definitely a great song. And it has very powerful lyrics.

Carl McCoy was raised a Jahovahs Witness by his ultra religious mother, he's always been an outspoken opponent of over zealous religions. JW is what is known as a "death cult", they believe only 10,000 will be saved on judgement day, the end time. The song is a preacher who is laughing at people like McCoy who've turned their back on the faith in search of spiritual meaning elsewhere and don't believe in the end time. It's about, the very well documented, fact that JW religion is very harsh on those who turn their backs on the faith, all family contact is cut and those who leave are cast out by everyone else but the faithful are told to keep "eyes" on those who've left to make sure they don't try to make contact.
