Stagnant Water

Ruined body swinging from a tree Gunshot wound clean in a soft felt sea Cut throat dead on a blood red sun And the right hand of god Is a gun! Full moon overhead A good night to burry your dead Your body aches as the night closes in Waves crash down, is kept with no end Stagnant water in your veins A gunshot is your pain Lifeless man in river bed Stagnant water turn blood red How long can I live this disease? How long will it imprison me? Blood drawn So now I can bleed Leave him here to suffer with me Stagnant water in your veins A gunshot is your pain Lifeless man in river bed Stagnant water turn blood red The blood pours in frozen streams Sticks of death blows in with the breeze Pull it in so you lay your head On the blood and mouth of the river bed Stagnant water in your veins A gunshot is your pain Lifeless man in river bed Stagnant water turn blood red Gather round the whipping pole boy Take there turns in beating you down Cringe your teeth and feel it coming Just some more meat to pound Begging does you no good Turn your death into you peace Sober life as you feel it coming Without a chance of being free Break, break, break these damn chains!
