Bow Your Head

Bow your head Pray for the weak With all things said pray that it's blood in which you seek Fading away from dust to ash Requiem of your final thought Gone within a flash Pray for all the deaths you sought Bow your head in the final hour Like sheep we were led left to pray for diseased power I cannot see you beneath the grime Remained anything but true paying for our own crime Bow your head in reverence All grievance was bled and we were left with severance
