Moloch's Children

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

On an open hill stands an altar

Glazed glances in the image of the horror

A gigantic bronze statue

With a man's body and an ox's head

Sound of trumpets and rumble of the drums

An infernal melody

Hysteria, depravation and praise

By screams, whispers and moans

The priests are approaching

Bringing the firstborn and newborn

Felt the heat of its belly burning

Who was called protector by many

Placed extended

Into pagan God’s hands

They were thrown (in)

They were thrown (in)

Inside the metal monster

Burn my children

For something greater

The blood of the innocent

Will placate moloch's fury

Burn my children

For the sake of something bigger

The blood of the innocent

Will placate moloch's fury

Rolling inside the incandescent belly

While their bodies

Were devoured by the flames

Mothers striped their kids

Between mourning and pain

Aware of the role fulfilled

To your God protector
