Cut the Chord

Lyrics:
Where would you run if those you gave you a breath
Betrayed your trust and paid a high price to ensure you were dead
When the most dangerous place, for you is inside the womb
and those who brought you to life, had become your untimely tomb

Unleashed, a demon, prowling about the land, sent to devour and defile the souls of the innocent children
They have summoned this abomination to ensure complete destruction of humanity

Mother Mary
Intercede
On our behalf
For our sins

My heart is poured out in grief
for the destruction of the children of your people
Hide not thy face from thy servant
for I am in distress

Beware the demon prowling about the land, to devour and defile the souls of the innocent children
So cut the chord with this abomination avoid complete destruction of humanity

Let their own table before them
become a snare, let their sacrificial feasts
become a trap
Let their eyes become darkened so that they cannot see

Pour out, thy indignation upon them

May their camp be a desolation
Let no one dwell in their tents

Add to them
Punishment upon punishment
May they have no aquittal from thee
Let them be, blotted from the book of the living
Let them not be enrolled among the righteous

A spear through the head of any demon who would take souls away
Millstone drowning for any demon who would lead them astray

Mother Mary
Intercede
On our behalf
For our sins

My heart is poured out in grief
for the destruction of the children of your people
Hide not thy face from your servant
For we are in distress

Parade through the streets with the head of the demon
Show the world that God has brought his defeat
So cut the the throat of this abomination to avoid complete destruction of humanity
No longer will the demon prowl about the land, preying upon the souls of the innocent children
Sever the chord with this abomination to avoid complete destruction of humanity.
