Sacred Blood 'Divine' Lies

When desolation is king

Breathe for the souls that are dead

And to the gods they will sing

Watch as the rivers turn red

They’re going nowhere

What will tomorrow bring?

And with a short prayer

Disregard everything

When the temptation is strong

Fools stand in line to be lost

They don’t know where they belong

And don’t know when they’ve been crossed

Rise every morning

And just like anyone

So close to falling

Maybe they’ll come undone

Scrawled in dust

Words you trust

O, sacred blood, divine lies

You never thought that you’d be misled

But then it came as a big surprise

And on this journey you fear to tread

There’s nothing near you will pacify

No holy prophet to crucify

A silent shadow, a burning flame

The empty picture that you became

Yeah, a destroyer of dreams

Hurt won’t get carried away

And just like broken machines

There’s nothing left to betray

Walk through the sweet fire

When there’s no need to run

Scream at the white choir

Hide from the midnight sun

Some are blessed

Some possessed

O, sacred blood, divine lies

You never thought that you’d be misled

But then it came as a big surprise

And on this journey you fear to tread

There’s nothing near you will pacify

No holy prophet to crucify

A silent shadow, a burning flame

The empty picture that you became

A thousand goodbyes

Are lost in the wind

A mother will cry

And all street lights dimmed

No sweet music plays

But still they will dance

And there’ll be no flowers

For this deadly romance

O, sacred blood, divine lies

You never thought that you’d be misled

But then it came as a big surprise

And on this journey you fear to tread

There’s nothing near you will pacify

No holy prophet to crucify

A silent shadow, a burning flame

The empty picture that you became

O, sacred blood, divine lies

You never thought that you’d be misled

But then it came as a big surprise

And on this journey you fear to tread

There’s nothing near you will pacify

No holy prophet to crucify

A silent shadow, a burning flame

The empty picture that you became
