Song Lyrics

"Legion Of The Crypts"

by Temple Of Blood
Album: Prepare For The Judgement Of Mankind

Driven by the evil to the wilderness
Derelict of the people of the Gerasenes
Possessed by the demons of the underworld
Unbound from the shackles of society

They all knew his plight of prolonged agony
Condemned to the outer crypts for all his days
There was now but one man who could ease his pain
Give life to this tortured man, this throwaway

His whole life was marked by pain and misery
He had endured a true living hell on Earth
Tragedy manifested itself through his rage
Terror was his signature and his life's work

(chorus)
Legion - demons in his soul
Can this Jesus set him free'
Seven demons call him home
If you can then set him free

All the demons begged the prophet for mercy
To be spared the fate of the abysmal pits
And to this deal did the Son of God agree
Banished into swine and perished off a cliff

(repeat chorus)

The legion of demons won't reign any more
Of a stable, calm, and peaceful mind is he
Seven demons have now all been cast away
The power of the Lord above has set him free
