A Chalice of Gore

Saša Milivojev - A CHALICE OF GORE Silence bites Below school's stairs Trickling tears of fervent gore From thy brethren's veins Their cups to the rim they pour All is shattered in the blast Heavens echoing with silence Dracula is licking his lips Threading fingers through their tears Pouring for his laughing friends Ask why, if you dare, on your blood they're feasting you may lose your ears the screwdriver your skull may be piercing Chainsaw by the school Truckloads of dead bodies Buckets of ice of kidneys galore Bloody lakes bear witness Yet the World 's watching Mercilessly My torn heart Still is beating While a crow my heart is eating! In that chalice of gore Flows all evil of the world In it glisten child's eyes innocent Shattered by the blitz Voiceless stone Sing of malice Of the stake Of the rope Never will it pass Our torment's toll Rivers of blood will forever flow.
