FOZZY LYRICS - Wormwood

"Wormwood"



[I. The Tribulation]



The day of Judgment has arrived

Only the blessed shall survive

The second coming of Jesus Christ

Returning like a thief in the night



A tribulation, seven years

The prophet's right the end is near

The written fall of Babylon

All believers dead and gone



Chosen people ostracized

Take the mark or surely die

To buy or sell, must be affixed

The Antichrist, Six Six Six



Ushering in the End of Days

Destroying those who've lost their way

Only the blessed shall survive

Armageddon has arrived



[chorus]

Wormwood falls from the sky

A soul denied, twice will die

Wormwood falls in the sea

Humanity will cease to be



Wormwood falls form the sky

A soul denied, twice will die

Wormwood falls in the sea

Humanity will cease to be



[II. The Seven Seals]



On through the dead of night

See the four horsemen ride

I saw the lamb open wide

The seven seals are broken



The white horse is given a crown

The conqueror bent on conquest

The red horse is given a sword

Taking peace from the world, slayer of men



The black horse is given a scale

The deliverer bringing famine

The pale horse is given the force

Die by the sword, sickness and plagues



Souls that are in slain

Testimony maintained

The sun a black snake

Devastating earthquake



Heaven is still, raining fire at will

Heaven is still, raining fire at will



[III. The Seven Trumpets]



Seven trumpets

Seven angles

Seven trumpets

Seven angles



A hailstorm of blood

Falling like a flood

A mountain in flames

Plugging in the waves



Locusts arise

To torture, not kill them

Massive attacks

Two hundred million



Booming thunder

The lightning destroyer

The bride did not know her

The whore of Babylon



IV. The seven Thunders

Seal up what the seven thunders know

Trumpet of the seven angels blow



[V. The Seven Bowl Judgments]



The judgments of God

Slaughter all in its path

The angles of God

Pour the bowls of his wrath



The first Vail

Unleashes sores on the children of the beast

The second angle

Pours his bowl on the sea, killing all the living creatures

The third Vail

Unleashes blood on the rivers and springs

The fourth angle

Pours his bowl on the sun, scorching people with the fire

The fifth Vail

Unleashes night on the kingdom of the beast

The sixth angle

Pours his bowl Euphrates runs dry, armies walk across

The seventh Vail

Unleashes hell, every mountain is razed

The mother whore

Holds the cup in her hand, filled with filthy adultery



[chorus]



[VI. The Thousand Years]



I saw heaven open wide

On the white horse Justice rides

Clad in red roves dipped in blood

His name is the Word of God



Beast is captured, burned in fire

Locked away the king of liars

One thousand years is Satan's stay

Begins this resurrection day



Warning sign, a prophecy

Rising from the eternal sea

Down on your knees start to pray

Ray of son to light the way



Will this happen, a story cast

Or a fable from the past

Make your choice this is no game

Will the Book Of Life bear your name?
