[Lyric] Shadow of the Needle (Ignitor)

The war goddess speaks to me
The will of Ra I must defend
The Great Ennead is
Three times three
The end will come to mortal men

Like a hand of a giant clock
A shadow cast will point the way
200 tons of Aswan rock
Will choose the victim of the day

I stand under command
In the shadow of the needle
A god will guide my hand

In the shadow of the needle
The end justify the means
Dark demands of ancient evil
I can still hear the screams
In the shadow of the needle
I feel those that camе before me
Chosеn ones of endless woe
Now nothing can restore me
To the life I used to know

Sekhmet now dwells inside
Endless fury and lust for blood
The wicked can not hide
The burning eye will be the judge

I can not rest
The journey’s just begun
Three cities, three spires
Nine gods that scream for blood

I join the blest
Destroyers of the facade
Three cities, three spires
Assassins of the Gods

I wait for you
All weakness shed
We walk into
The kingdom of the dead

One before whom evil trembles
Mistress of Dread
Lady of Slaughter
I will be the holy vessel
Of the sun gods mighty daughter
The avenging eye of Ra
What’s lost she must reclaim
My being filled with awe
God will speak my secret name

I stand under command
In the shadow of the needle
A god will guide my hand
In the shadow of the needle
The end justify the means
Dark demands of ancient evil
I can still hear the screams
In the shadow of the needle

I can not rest
The journey’s just begun
Three cities, three spires
Nine gods that scream for blood

I join the blest
Destroyers of the facade
Three cities, three spires
Assassins
Glorious Assassins of the Gods

I still hear the screams
In the shadow of the needle
