[Verse 1]
Deep obsession, mind control
Possession of the human soul
Here we gather on this night
Shadowcult, candle light
Death is certain, life is not
And in the end we all shall rot
Sadistic demons, sacrifice
Shadowcult, candle lights

[Verse 2]
Give your mind and soul to me
Kneel and I will make you see
Fire will sanctify the earth
Blood announces my rebirth
Tonight the Shadowcult is born
Bound and forever sworn
Souls are mine to take and give
Submit and I will let you live

[Pre-Chorus 1]
No salvation of this Earth
We're condemned from our birth
Clouded judgment blinded eyes
Shadowcult will free your mind

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Who can open up your eyes
And finally show us paradise?
The cult of the shadows hypnotize
Control your minds and mesmerize
Who's the father of our lies?
Sell your soul, free your mind
Bow your heads and testify
A golden calf to idolize
Who can truly make us wise?
A leader we will canonize
Finally make us civilized
Indoctrinate and humanize
A Shadowcult will wash your mind
Clear your head and compromise
Those opposed we terrorize
Crush their bones and brutalize

[Chorus]
Shadowcult
Demon nights
Shadowcult
Demon nights

[Post-Chorus]
My thoughts withheld, a mindless hell
My words become an empty shell
My world controlled, as I behold
The master's grip, possess my soul

[Guitar solo 1: Gonzalez]
[Guitar solo 2: Creamer]

[Verse 3]
Give your mind and soul to me
Kneel and I will make you see
Fire will sanctify the earth
Blood announces my rebirth
Tonight the Shadowcult is born
Bound and forever sworn
Souls are mine to take and give
Submit and I will let you live

[Pre-Chorus 3]
Born as slaves, free as men
Our salvation comes through sin
Kings and nations, revelations
Fire and torment and damnations

[Verse 4]
Deep obsession, mind control
Possession of the human soul
Here we gather on this night
Shadowcult, candle light
Death is certain life is not
And in the end we all shall rot
Sadistic demons, sacrifice
Shadowcult, candle lights

[Chorus]
Shadowcult
Demon nights
Shadowcult
Demon nights
