"… The third angel blew his trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven, blazing like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and in the fountains of water. The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became Wormwood, and many died of the water, because it was made bitter …" I can see God's unborn son Playing with a loaded gun All our sins … He'll die for us … Or did somebody lie to us? I can see the shape of God Drowning in a pool of blood A mighty choir of ancient generations sings Behold! The hand of death Squeezing out earth's final breath The stars are falling from the sky And I know why See God and his hand of death Sqeezing out earth's final breath How did it all come to this? Brought to us by Judas' kiss I watch the sun go out I've lived to see the end As I watch the sun go out My loss of faith replaced by doubt All our sins … He'll die for us … Or did somebody lie to us? Let us pour one final drink Fill the glasses to the rim The world's on fire I still can hear the choir sing Behold! Your nightmares are fulfilled God just got his final will The world stopped spinning And death is all around … Come … Join this toast God is dead …
