Mr. Mayor, the mission burns the zombies are marching, they close on the square Families are cold, look down at their souls huddled in camps on the old marble steps of City Hall Faith in their God, that's all that they've got Across the room, beyond the pane the whole world is churning, bleeding and burning, hailstorms and ash The moon is as blood over the soldiers who sag in the mud.
CHORUS Save our city Keep our souls, Lord Through the rapture of this world.
Little boy, I'm just a man, a mere civil servant against this tyrant God I've allied with our King, salvation he brings protecting the city against all the troops Heaven sent but the dead walk again, this is the end. Oh I'm just a man, my time has come Long live King Simius! May he deliver us from this nightmare! And with a blast like the sun his lips are unwrapped from the barrel of his gun.
REPEAT CHORUS
Fought and fell for our great king we burned alive and boiled The dragon, red and wrathful calls We rise and march once more. Cursed in death, we starve for flesh Our skin is cooked and curled We'll eat our skin and smash them in In Hell, we'll grind their bones.
REPEAT CHORUS
Save our city Keep our souls, Lord God Through the rapture of this world.
Save our city (Fought and fell for our great king) Keep our souls, Lord God (We burned alive and boiled) Through [the mayor's ruined head, the boy steps through the window] the rapture (The dragon, red and wrathful calls) of this world. [and cries out from the ledge to the people below.] (We rise and march once more.)
Save our city [There's a time to pray and there's a time to fight] (Cursed in death, we starve for flesh) Keep our souls, Lord God [Anything can be a weapon if you're holding it right] (Our skin is cooked and curled) Through the rapture [Defend what is yours, they will not take our souls] (We'll eat our skin and smash them in) and so we [it's time now to] rise and fight!
Save our city! Keep our souls, Lord! Rise now and fight!
