Blood Bath

it was a coup, they planned it all along. but they never knew who was getting hit, they set curfews for the masses. don't care if they spoil a date. they boost of what they have while you put them there, you help them up and now who cares. so it was a coup, so you had a plan, so we thought it was original. so it was a coup people died in the process, so it was for you. they drink wine, they sleep like a baby, and their eyes to the sky when their troth is slashed. their blood runs deep to the ground like water and makes the ground solid. so it was a coup, so you had it pinned while many others die yet you sit so fat. you sleep like a new baby. so it was a coup.
