^ <●> ====== ========= ============= Their hearts are made of solid Stone The mortar is of ice Beneath their weight The people groan They pursue every vice They hold the world in their hands Red and slick with blood They subdue the people of all lands Drowning in the flood Yes, they are the money men They move with cunning feet They and their offspring Rule again They're known as "The Elite" They build their Fortress strong and lofty They live in the high Towers They'll make them oh so craftily Of Privilege and Power They've hewn the rock From quarry stones In the deepest well They've built Their works upon our bones They've risen straight from hell But they will find their edifice So beau-ti-fully wrought When there can be no recompense Their works will fall and rot There will be no hiding place No rocks they can crawl under They will see God's wrathful face And be torn asunder! My pain is only in this world In it I'll be vexed But I'll pass the Gates of Pearl Joy Eternal's in the next! SøułSurvivør (C) 3/7/2018

Of Stone And Ice
