Verse 1)
They came in robes, eyes wide shut
Chanting sermons from a bloodstained gut
Painted sigils on the chapel floor
Said the end was near — begged for more
He spoke in riddles, spit like fire
Promised heaven through the razor wire
Built a throne from broken bones
Crowned himself in dial tones
(Pre-Chorus)
Drink the ash, kiss the flame
Tattoo madness on your name
He’s the shepherd, we’re the sheep
Marching blind into the deep
(Chorus)
It’s the Locopocolypse — praise the lie!
Raise your fists to the neon sky
False messiah, hollow king
We dance while the sirens sing
Locopocolypse — no escape
Swallowed whole by the smile on his face
Truth is dead, long live the myth
We were born for a fall like this
(Verse 2)
They burned the books, rewrote the past
Fed us sermons laced with gas
Every doubt was crucified
Every whisper sanctified
He said, “Obey, or be erased”
So we carved his name into our face
Built a temple out of fear
Screamed his gospel in the mirror
(Bridge)
We wore the chains like holy beads
Bled belief to fill his needs
He laughed while we tore out our eyes
Said, “Now you’re ready for paradise”
(Breakdown)
Locusts in the choir pit
Drums like war, hearts unlit
He’s the glitch in the sacred code
The virus in the motherlode
(Final Chorus)
Locopocolypse — praise the lie!
Raise your fists to the neon sky
False messiah, hollow king
We dance while the sirens sing
Locopocolypse — no escape
Swallowed whole by the smile on his face
Truth is dead, long live the myth
We were born for a fall like this
