Sacred Blood, Divine Lies

When desolation is king Breathe for the souls that are dead And to the gods they will sing Watch as the rivers turn red They're going nowhere What will tomorrow bring? And with a short prayer Disregard everything When the temptation is strong Fools stand in line to be lost They don't know where they belong And don't know when they've been crossed Rise every morning And just like anyone So close to falling Maybe they'll come undone Scrawled in dust Words you trust O, sacred blood, divine lies You never thought that you'd be misled But then it came as a big surprise And on this journey you fear to tread There's nothing near you will pacify No holy prophet to crucify A silent shadow, a burning flame The empty picture that you became Yeah, a destroyer of dreams Hurt won't get carried away And just like broken machines There's nothing left to betray Walk through the sweet fire When there's no need to run Hide from the midnight sun Some are blessed Some possessed O, sacred blood, divine lies You never thought that you'd be misled But then it came as a big surprise And on this journey you fear to tread There's nothing near you will pacify No holy prophet to crucify A silent shadow, a burning flame The empty picture that you became A thousand goodbyes Are lost in the wind A mother will cry And all street lights dimmed No sweet music plays But still they will dance And there'll be no flowers For this deadly romance O, sacred blood, divine lies You never thought that you'd be misled But then it came as a big surprise And on this journey you fear to tread There's nothing near you will pacify No holy prophet to crucify A silent shadow, a burning flame The empty picture that you became O, sacred blood, divine lies You never thought that you'd be misled But then it came as a big surprise And on this journey you fear to tread There's nothing near you will pacify No holy prophet to crucify A silent shadow, a burning flame The empty picture that you became
