Burnt Offerings Lyrics by Iced Earth

The Blessed and the Damned

1995

[Intro]
I was betrayed
Look what your God has done to me
[Verse 1]
In one last breath
You'll feel this damned old soul
You'll see the things I see
For all these years of pain and sacrifice
You'll know the pain I know
Of all these things I offer onto you
Infernal wisdom waits
Now unleashed like the flames of hate
My sacrifice is made
[Verse 2]
Every note and every word you hear
Comes from deep within
An angry soul that twists
And turns inside, pondering this life
Crimson eyes staring through your lies
Awakes the inner rage
Take my knife, make my sacrifice
You're my burnt offering
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Spill your blood (blood), offer me good omen
Make the sacrifice (fice)
The hour's close at hand
Burn your soul (soul), offer me good omen
Take your very life (life)
This I command
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Dark shadows fall
On this sacred ground
Where true evil lies
Summon them to (rise)
Take the traitors, thieves and liars
Feed them to the (fire)
But first, spread their blood around
The message will be (found)
Walk carefully, my friend
Stab my back again
A warning from the skies:
"Fuck with us and die"
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
These are not idle threats, my friends
We're slaughtering the lambs
True vengeance is on the rise
The traitors shall be damned
Cast their bodies to the flames (To the flames)
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus – Fading]
Spill your blood (blood), offer me good omen
Make the sacrifice (fice)
The hour's close at hand
Burn your soul (soul), offer me good omen
Take your very life (life)
This I command
Spill your blood (blood), offer me good omen
Make the sacrifice (fice)
The hour's close at hand
Burn your soul (soul), offer me good omen
Take your very life (life)
This I command
Spill your blood (blood), offer me good omen
Make the sacrifice (fice)
The hour's close at hand
