[Intro – slow, crushing doom riff, distant reversed Latin choir]
In the forsaken nave where candles bleed black tears,
A priest of shadows carved the final seal with bone.
He slit the throats of saints and whispered through his fears,
And tore the veil apart to claim Hell’s empty throne.
[Verse 1 – ABAB]
He called the beast with blood that stained the altar stone,
A hunger born from nothing, endless, cold, and vast.
“Devour every pure soul, leave the righteous overthrown,”
So Heaven’s balance breaks and Hell can rise at last.
[Pre-Chorus]
He laughed and pulled the chain, convinced the monster served,
Blind to the ancient eyes that watched his every nerve.
[Chorus – explosive, double bass thunder, gang vocals]
SOUL EATER!
Rip the light from their veins, leave empty shells to rot!
SOUL EATER!
Priest’s arrogance ignites the flame that Hell forgot!
He thinks he holds the leash, commands the dark with pride,
But Lucifer already stands on the other side!
SOUL EATER!
[Verse 2 – ABAB]
It slithered through cathedrals, swallowed prayers mid-flight,
Feasted on the innocent, their souls like fragile glass.
The priest stood tall and shouted orders in the night,
Unaware the shadow answered to a higher class.
[Solo Heavy Guitar]
[Pre-Chorus]
The tug upon the chain reversed in freezing dread,
A power older than his spells filled him with regret.
[Chorus – even heavier]
SOUL EATER!
Rip the light from their veins, leave empty shells to rot!
SOUL EATER!
Priest’s arrogance ignites the flame that Hell forgot!
He thinks he holds the leash, commands the dark with pride,
But Lucifer already stands on the other side!
SOUL EATER!
[Verse 3 – ABAB]
The rift tore wider, bleeding fire across the sky,
The priest raised ancient tomes he swore would keep control.
But from the breach stepped Morningstar with burning eye,
Wearing the summoner’s own face, devouring his soul.
[Bridge – atmospheric, clean guitars under low growls]
“You rang the dinner bell, frail creature made of dust,
Yet never understood whose table you prepared.
The gates are open now, your world will turn to rust,
And every scream will feed the empire I’ve declared.”
[Breakdown – crushing palm mutes, guttural]
NO ESCAPE!
NO PRAYER!
NO LIGHT!
HUMANITY DIES TONIGHT!
[Chorus – maximum chaos, full band + choir]
SOUL EATER!
Rip the light from their veins, leave empty shells to rot!
SOUL EATER!
Priest’s arrogance ignites the flame that Hell forgot!
He thinks he holds the leash, commands the dark with pride,
But Lucifer already stands on the other side!
SOUL EATER!
[Final Chorus – everything at full force, last line raw scream into silence]
SOUL EATER!
Rip the light from their veins, leave empty shells to rot!
SOUL EATER!
Priest’s arrogance ignites the flame that Hell forgot!
One dark priest with blackened spells was all it took,
To hand the Earth to Lucifer… and close the final book!
SOUL EATER!
[Outro – fading guitar into distant screams]
One twisted priest…
Was all it took…
To drag the world…
Into the Morning Star.
