Blunt Force Blues

(Here comes another enemy)

A goddess standing on the wall
For all the men doomed to die
An alabaster beauty sweats
Paints the currents black, they must ride

Last breath decays
Do you hear?

The death blows echo in a concrete scene
Voices hollow, vapid machine
Bloodletting memories
Death blow echoes, let it bleed

Then the streets were set afire
In hateful celebrations
As dying screams filled the air
Kinetic apparitions

Reject, break down
Do you hear?

The death blows echo in a concrete scene
Voices hollow, vapid machine
Bloodletting memories
Death blow echoes, let it bleed

(Do you hear?)

Cigarettes and falling snow
Back when things still mattered (do you hear?)
An optimistic overdose
A heart that wasn't shattered
Go!

No regrets to call my own
Or questions left unanswered
Inane and comatose
What's dead cannot be captured

Last breath decays
Do you hear?

The death blows echo in a concrete scene
Voices hollow, vapid machine
Bloodletting memories
Death blow echoes, let it bleed

Let it bleed
