now there is a line
in genesis nine
after the flood
kill men who shed the blood
sharp is your needle
revenge is evil
wrong or right
blind is the justice
cold as a judas kiss
dark is the night
dead petals falling on the bed
white crosses hanging overhead
deep is the final breath
long is a man's death
thou shalt not kill
the cry from calvary's hill
but a soul is a soul
as we slaughter our own
locked in a cage
handguns at our heads
singing gospels of rage
saying they're better off dead
one prick of the skin
wipes away sin
an eye for an eye
it's our hearts we're losing
dead petals falling on the bed
white crosses hanging overhead
deep is the final breath
long is a man's death
sharp is your needle
