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
