Overthrone (Metal Version)

[Verse 1]
Do not be afraid, your savior has arrived
Rejoice, hear the word of the Angel in disguise
I know what makes you human, I know the things you dread
I’ll whisper the deception, planting thoughts inside your head
The ancient pretender from whom you can’t hide
The hand guiding history to ruin mankind
Try to escape what you fear deep inside
Run while you can (Feel the pain behind your eyes)

[Pre-Chorus]
A new tradition leading the world by the hand
(Forsaken the shepherd, follow my word 'til thе end)
Your god imprisoned, forgotten and buriеd in sand
(Do not be afraid, rejoice)

[Chorus]
Because your world’s been overthrown
Retreat to your homes and die alone
Fate unfortunate, your life’s been replaced with an alternate
Ancient sabotage concealed by angelic camouflage
Conquered easily, bow down to a synthetic deity

[Post-Chorus]
Why attempt to escape the terrors that you fear?
Why bother trying to hide from the whisper in your ear?

[Verse 2]
Your consciousness is fragile, your mind will surely break
When facing down a demon who’ll impersonate your face
Can’t you see you’ve been bowing down to me?
I will intercept your prayers, steal your dreams
Now your God’s an absentee
Your foolishness will be your legacy
Committed the crime of opposing me
You’ll pay the price with your identity (Now perish with your kind)

[Pre-Chorus]
A new tradition leading the world by the hand
(Forsaken the shepherd, follow my word 'til the end)
Your god imprisoned, forgotten and buried in sand
(Do not be afraid, rejoice)

[Chorus]
Because your world’s been overthrown
Retreat to your homes and die alone
Fate unfortunate, your life’s been replaced with an alternate
Ancient sabotage concealed by angelic camouflage
Conquered easily, bow down to a—

[Interlude]
Do you know my face?
It’s been some time between
Can you recall the terror on your screen?

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
You came to know me first through twisted flesh and broken bone
You’ve been frightened by the monsters, but your skin is not your own
Now stare into the mirror and behold your wretched face
Do you understand that you are not the child you replaced?
You’ll give into the hunger, go and make yourself some friends
The might of the subconscious binding us until the end
A perfect simulacrum bred to mimic, born to kill
Now go and join the others and do thy creator’s will

[Pre-Chorus]
A new tradition leading the world by the hand
(Forsaken the shepherd, follow my word 'til the end)
Your god imprisoned, forgotten and buried in sand
(Do not be afraid, rejoice)

A new tradition leading the world by the hand
[So just admit your fears]
(Forsaken the shepherd, follow my word 'til the end)
[To the man on your TV]
Your god imprisoned, forgotten and buried in sand
[Do they know you're here?]
(Do not be afraid, rejoice)
[Don't make me wake the others.]

[Chorus]
Because your world’s been overthrown
Retreat to your homes and die alone
Fate unfortunate, your life’s been replaced with an alternate
Ancient sabotage concealed by angelic camouflage
Conquered easily, bow down to a synthetic deity

[Outro]
Rejoice, rejoice
