river of blood

Well I've lost my younger eyes

I'm telling only lies

I'm the lord of ash and dust and all the flies

And I know that I will pay

There's nothing left to say

I only ask that you do stay away

While I'm drowning in my river of blood

Well long ago, I lost you in the flood

So I go and get revenge

Protection of the head and burning of the pen

The years I've lost

I'll just sit here in my rage and turn another page

Oh I'll usher in another cursed old age

While I'm drowning in my river of blood

Well long ago, I lost you in thе flood
