Descending Blade (Live in Krakow, Poland - April 4th, 2023)

You may wield the blade

But always remember that the blade has a second edge

Descending, descending blade

Let's keep it fucking going

Lie and wait for the target, stalking down the prey

I've come to collect the price on your head, permission to assassinate

Watching in the night with a telescopic sight

Look to the left, look to the right, I am always right behind

Scanning through the infrared, operate in secrecy

The orders are given by encrypted transmission, now we know the target's name

Descending blade

On your back like a shadow, in position for the kill

Waiting for the moment to strike, and it might be tonight

Everywhere you go, I see you through my scope

All your dreams, all your hope disappear in the gun smoke

Now closing in with sharpened knives, death comes before the pain

Another laceration with surgical precision, and their blood is washed away by the rain

Descending blade

Just try to run 'cause we will find you all the same

By poison of the viper or bullet of a sniper, they're never seen again

No more

Descending blade

Descend!

Just remember, the blade has a second edge

I see my own face in the crosshairs, a red dot between my eyes

There's only one second till the instant when I die

I never saw the bullet, never felt the impact

Just a sound of the rifle's crack, and everything went black
