Rivers of Blood
With every senseless death
We slip into the underworld
And unwittingly fertilize the earth
To grow and cultivate even more hatred
We’re all in a syringe
Crushed under this global empire
Driving the needle of revenge
To suck life-giving blood like vampires
Have you seen hell...?
It’s the colour you read
And with every drop we spill
We paint its dark walls and corridors red
He’s giving himself a facelift
And renovating his dungeon
Not seen since the holocaust
With new blood and fresh souls to condemn
How many must lay soaking the ground
As the demons dance in the rain?
Just today feeding the underground
With the lives of innocent God’s children
In search of humanity’s main vein
To supply the rivers of blood
Drying up with peaceful reign
Open the floodgates so peace and love can flood
