[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
In your crown and glory
You have rephrased the truth
You bring your pain
You pin them down
You're sly
Obedience mandatory
Indoctrinate the youth
You pull the string to keep their fear alive
[Verse 2]
By swinging on your vine bows
They built you like a disease
Struggling to conceal your mortality
Burns to keep your people
From the edge to beyond
There's just one more thing that can make you lie
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Terrorize with speech and violence
And you'll hear the line
[Chorus]
Blood cries out
Suppressеd by injustice and fear
Vengеance for all those deceased
One day they'll be draping the spear
Straight into the heart of the beast
Heart of the beast
[Verse 3]
You preserve your power
Keep the wolves in bay
Now it's changed your enemy's away
Master of deception
Own the key of the mind
Vanity is legendary
[Pre-Chorus 2]
All this sea called to treason
Let's believe that's me
[Chorus]
Blood cries out
Suppressed by injustice and fear
Vengeance for all those deceased
One day they'll be draping the spear
Straight into the heart of the beast
[Verse 4]
Darkness grows within you
When you're a human slaughterhouse
Piles of bones upon the crimson ground
A mind made for murder and horror world-round
Your satanic majesty in your realm of misery
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Blood cries out
Suppressed by injustice and fear
Vengeance for all those deceased
One day they'll be draping the spear
Straight into the heart of the beast
[Verse 1]
In your crown and glory
