All lined up Palms against the wall They're praying for a saviour But they know nobody cares
Three men raise their arms Tools of war, constructed only to take lives To spray the walls with the blood of the guilty Or the blood of the innocent
The order is given Sharp cracks fill the street Like a master whipping a slave Only a thousand times faster
Hollow cylinders of brass clatter on the cobble floor The wine of life flows through the grooves in between the stones As the bodies fall, their essence pours into the drains To join the rest of the waste this city wants to dispose of
