Shadows Die Lyrics
Tear down the cross, splinters and shards remembered
This Trojan horse rode to the land we enter
We'll burn away and free our fallen brothers
From shackles made of steel and bones of soldiers
Let shadows die so I can feel alive
A church of lies can't tell me what is right
Our little victories and desires won't live on
Let shadows die so I can feel alive, feel alive
I feel alive
In fear and faith, the candles light our freedom
By tainted night we live this war of wisdom
The streets are stained with blood that ran their kingdom
And feed the beast that lies beneath our treason
Let shadows die so I can feel alive
A church of lies can't tell me what is right
Our little victories and desires won't live on
Let shadows die so I can feel alive, feel alive
Fear, round up these rebels
These deviants, these so-called wild ones
We will litter the streets with their bones
And annihilate the dangerous and obtuse ideas poisoning your children,
Endangering your freedom, giving rise to the destruction
Of the benevolent future we have prepared for you
You belong to the shadows, and the shadows are where you will remain safe
Do not disobey
Let shadows die so I can feel alive
A church of lies can't tell me what is right
Our little victories and desires won't live on
Let shadows die so I can feel alive, feel alive
This Trojan horse rode to the land we enter
We'll burn away and free our fallen brothers
From shackles made of steel and bones of soldiers
A church of lies can't tell me what is right
Our little victories and desires won't live on
Let shadows die so I can feel alive, feel alive
I feel alive
By tainted night we live this war of wisdom
The streets are stained with blood that ran their kingdom
And feed the beast that lies beneath our treason
A church of lies can't tell me what is right
Our little victories and desires won't live on
Let shadows die so I can feel alive, feel alive
These deviants, these so-called wild ones
We will litter the streets with their bones
And annihilate the dangerous and obtuse ideas poisoning your children,
Endangering your freedom, giving rise to the destruction
Of the benevolent future we have prepared for you
You belong to the shadows, and the shadows are where you will remain safe
Do not disobey
A church of lies can't tell me what is right
Our little victories and desires won't live on
Let shadows die so I can feel alive, feel alive

This whole album is the christian-raised suburban youth who's just discovered atheism and is trying to wake the sheeple lmao
I think of this as him leaving all his past mistakes/sin behind and helping the rebels do the same
