To Build a Tomb |
Watch as the banks break |
Flooding the land into |
The earth‘s heart |
Fear creeps in |
The stones are set with |
Blood and lust |
And the shadows bring what |
Your despise |
They move like snakes entwining |
Ulcers within |
War of words |
Spoken in handshakes |
Behind locked doors |
Tongues that twist and bend |
Dragging us all to our end |
And the skies turn black |
And the poison seeds don‘t grow |
With riches they line |
Their pockets |
Yet unpick the seams again |
Brick by brick |
You‘re closing yourself in |
To build upon blood and sand |
Is to build a tomb |
The candles burn |
The snake has spoken |
Watch as they rise through |
The cracks |
Eyes widen as the iris turns black |
Face the beckoning |
The winds of change are a myth |
The meek shall inherit the earth |
When their bodies are set adrift |
Sever the roots |
That run deep and feed |
Crown of thorns for |
Your majesty |
Failed |
Mortal |
Thwarted |
King |
To build on blood and sand |
Is to build a tomb |
