lyrics

In Blood and Limbs and Gore and Clay

She stands and watches
Over the gruesome plains of greed
While their pitiful bodies crawl forth
She mourns their vicious creed

On top of the world she rises
But few will heed her call
In their thirst for fame and glory
They’re blinded for the fall

In the dirt they fight their battle
Their clawing erodes the soil away
In the serpent's burrow,
Their bodies squirming
In blood and limbs and gore and clay

For eons now she stands and watches
Saving those who hear her call
But millions of souls stay deaf and blinded
She just can't save them all
