Lyrics

Graves

[Verse 1]

Black cross burns above our graves

Black cross burns above our graves

Black cross burns above our graves

Black cross burns above our graves

[Verse 2]

Blood hands rest above our graves

Blood hands rest above our graves

Blood hands rest above our graves

Blood hands rest above our graves

[Instrumental Break]

[Breakdown: Simon Neil]

Lie with bated breath

I will not wait for death

We all share the same fate

In our graves

Calling all you helpless souls

Throw down your swords and tools

And strike a conversation

About my blood hands

There are no words to say

I just killed a man

[Outro]

A black cross burns above our graves
