Tears of Blood

I see clouds of grey on the sun
Hooves on the sand like thunder
The battle has only begun
With the dead only growing in numbers

You asked me to tell you the truth
Reveal your fate as I saw it
My Lord I say this to you
I beg you don’t ignore it

I see tears of blood raining down from the sky
Tears of blood raining down
Tears of blood raining down from the sky
Tears of blood raining down

I see mothers howling in grief
For a child who will never come home
For they lie blood stained on a field
With dreams we’ll never know

You asked me to tell you the truth
Reveal their fate as I saw it
My Lord I ask this of you
Please stop all this warring

I see tears of blood raining down from the sky
Tears of blood raining down
Tears of blood raining down from the sky
Tears of blood raining down

And this blood will never run dry
Only lust for revenge will survive
Trickling down through the sands of time

And for those who never come home
We’ll write their names on stones
A million reluctant heroes

I see tears of blood raining down from the sky
(I see tears)
Tears of blood raining down
Tears of blood raining down from the sky
(Tears of blood)
Tears of blood raining down

I see tears of blood raining down from the sky
(I see tears)
Tears of blood raining down
Tears of blood raining down from the sky
(Tears of blood)
Tears of blood raining down
