Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I breach your life, indoctrinate
Police your thoughts, ask why I hate
I lose control when I see your face
Abusing power, I infiltrate
Continue lies, then masturbate
I walk the line, I'll do no time
I hate your church, I'll burn your state
A bleeding heart, a seal of fate
There is no crime within my mind
[Chorus]
I'll sell your life and preach your death
A wicked plan born of contempt
Bleeding my ideology through pain
[Guitar Solo: Jeff Hanneman]
[Verse 2]
Audacious plans I calculate
A new worldview I'll reinstate
Don't cross my path or I'll see you burn
You'll meet your end, find death alone
No grave to mark, the seeds you've sown
You've pushed too far, my secrets I defend
[Chorus]
I'll sell your life and preach your death
A wicked plan born of contempt

Bleeding my ideology through pain
[Guitar Solo: Jeff Hanneman]
[Bridge]
Demonize what is feared
Profane architect
Skull and bones through the mind
Barbaric thoughts of old
Celebrate all unknown
At last, the dead await
The die is cast for the meek
Inherit endless dead time
Smell the victims are near
Consume the catalyst
Hunting masses for game
Implanting septic thoughts
Reaping terror through words
While armed behind your back
Pseudo-leaders betray
Enslaving all of mankind
[Interlude]
Cast out the demigod
Dethrone the demagogue
Cast out the church of God
[Bridge]
Demonize what is feared
(Cast out the church of God)
Profane architect
Skull and bones through the mind
(Cast out the church of God)
Barbaric thoughts of old
Celebrate all unknown
(Cast out the church of God)
At last, the dead await
The die is cast for the meek
(Cast out the church of God)
Inherit endless dead time
[Verse 3]
I command your life and I don't care
Let bullets rain from everywhere
No suicide will save you from yourself
