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
