There's a storm heading our way
All that's been will be gone
All your cities will sink into the ocean
You run away like cattle
But you cannot flee the battle
Wipe your ass, it's time to put on your war paint

Throw the spear, let your hatred fly
Throw the spear, let your hatred fly
The desert is my prophet
As our lives end by the minute
Stand up straight and fucking put on your war paint

Time to die
Hammer high
Name your price
And kneel
Hail the apocalypse

All flesh is equal when burnt
We are forgiven
Forgive us, we never shall learn
Get down
Hail the apocalypse

Once you built, now you run away
The world is coming down
Leave your mark upon the graves of your stillborn
Just wrap it up in plastic
Isn't killing things fantastic?
Fuck your greed
Come on and put on your war paint

Die
Hammer high
Name your price
And kneel
Hail the apocalypse

All flesh is equal when burnt
We are forgiven
Forgive us, we never shall learn
Get down
Hail the apocalypse

All the lords I've sworn to obey
All the lords I've sworn to obey
I take it back

(All the lords I've sworn to obey)
(All the lords I've sworn to obey)
(I take it back)

Hail the apocalypse
All flesh is equal when burnt
We are forgiven
Forgive, as we never shall learn
Get down
Hail the apocalypse

    My Interpretation

    I think this is more or less a satirical romp about those who are always saying the end is coming. It's saying to those who wish to belief this to be so, to not bother to cower in fear but to embrace it fully as they're gonna die either way.
