Progeny Lyrics

Cover art for Progeny lyrics by Celtic Frost

This talks about how God was created by man, and if that is so, then man is the only God there is. In the speaker's case (Tom?), he feels so hopeless and misanthropic, that if he really is God, the world over which he reigns is a desolate wasteland. For example,

"If I am you, no life is sacred in my hands If I am you, no love will prosper in this world" Translation (IMO): If I am God, the world I have created is one in which life is trivial and love is an illusion.

Definitely an anthem of nihilism.
