A Thousand Years of Servitude

A thousand years Living for a God Living as a dog Running after absolution Betraying his own flesh A thousand years Looking for a world Waiting for a bird The flood has murdered To feed the anger A thousand years Living for a God Living as a dog Running after absolution Betraying his own flesh Shame on the sailor Death to the saviour Looking for a world Living for a God Running after absolution Betraying his own flesh A thousand years Crushing your bloodBleak as dead wood Squeezing the neck As deep as your wreck Floating on the Earth With the wind of shame Crashing on to the skulls of the men Hiding your sins, bending your knees Split the world!
