Broken teeth, a shattered jaw
Ten to one, behold my God
Wicked sons of Heaven’s loss
Raise your own inverted cross
Kings of earth, iron first
Serve the sacred you dismissed
Stand before your final day
Choke on every line you pray
Raise your glass to death
Not one second left [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/d/demon_hunter/storm_the_gates_of_hell.html ]
Chorus:
Wake the lifeless, die to fight this
Stand beside me, storm the gates of Hell
Wake the lifeless, die to fight this
Stand beside me, storm the gates of Hell
Storm the gates of Hell
Coward’s heart, a serpent’s tongue
Stand to face what you’ve outrun
Fear of death, fear of pain
Bound to all you took in vain
No more lies, no regrets
Sever ties and hollow debt
Open eyes, live to learn
Or watch your blessed temple burn
No! This song is not about the apocalypse "storm the gates of hell" is a mere metaphore this song comes from the psalms this song has a different meaning in the lyrics and chorus by the way. To storm the gates of hell means for the people of this earth to pick up their swords and fight in the never ending spiritual battle against satan wake the lifeless means preech the word and fight against the bonds against the unsaved die to fight this means me willing to die for our heavenly father stand beside me means hes telling other christians to stand and fight the battle as well this is all coming from the demon hunter website by the way broken teeth shattered jaw ten to one behold my god wicked sons of heavens loss raise your own inverted cross this starts the song as it talks about satan and 1/3 angels falling dont always assume the apocalypse granite it does sound like it but this song is about the spiritual battle not the apocalypse
God's not gonna destroy hell guys... He's just gonna trap evil inside. This song is about evil being destroyed and stuck in hell, and evil on earth. The inverted cross reference is alluding to pagans and satanists, as the inverted cross is a symbol of satan.
Sorry guys but "watch your blessed temple burn" is not hell, what is the last thing he says? "hell hath no furry at all", but yea its basicaly the apocalypse. The first verse speaks to hell then to humanity, "broken teeth, a shattered jaw ten to one, behold my god wicked sons of heaven’s loss raise your own inverted cross", hell & "kings of earth, iron first serve the sacred you dismissed stand before your final day
choke on every line you pray" humanity. & the second verse tells humanity to fight b-4 anything else or the blessed temple(church or even heaven maybe) will burn to the ground...
Clearly sending the message of the armageddon battle. Waking the lifeless: talking bout the resurrection of the dead in christ. Watch ur blessed temple burn: the destruction of hell. ... Serve the sacred u dismissed: the sinners who turned from god
