Blood On the Moon

there is blood on the moon tonight can you hear the raven's caw wolves howl fear chill the air with it's icy claws there is blood on the moon tonight war plays chess with heads of state whispered deeds fill enemies ears death stands at attention ready to open the flood gate there's blood on the moon tonight evil intention dances gleefully down the streets children run in fright blades are sharpened armor strapped on there's blood on the moon tonight anticipation fills the air warriors mumble prayers demons lick their lips someone will lose their life tread with care lock your doors stoke the fire against the night air there's blood on the moon tonight (c)mjr 2008
