And when the painful sores Come upon those bearing the mark of the beast And when the oceans become blood Killing all the creatures of the seas Rivers run red and the angels praise And sing for the one who finally reigns The fires of the sun will reach the Earth it will scorch everything beyond birth You want to criticize me Meaningless to me You want to persecute me Meaningless to me No chance of stopping me You want to be me Of course you want to be: Forge your own destiny What's your pain to me? Agony will make you tougher I am blind when you suffer. I like to win So why should I not This life is a game They let me play God If they want to creep Then who am I to deny them this need? And when the wicked continue To defame the name of God And when the lights go out Everything turns dark. Armies prepare and the battle cries sound And an earthquake tears an open wound The demons gather behind their king While the ignorant still stubbornly sing: You want to criticize me Meaningless to me You want to persecute me Meaningless to me No chance of stopping me You want to be me Of course you want to be: Forge your own destiny What's your pain to me? Agony will make you tougher I am blind when you suffer. I like to win So why should I not This life is a game They let me play God If they want to creep Then who am I to deny them this need? I like to win So why should I not This life is a game They let me play God If they want to creep Then who am I to deny them this need? I like to win So why should I not This life is a game They let me play God If they want to creep Then who am I to deny them this need?
