RIOT OF THE BLOOD

RELINQUISHED (DEATH IS A LOATHSOME BLESSING)

IF YOU THINK YOUR EXEMPT/ FROM ITS GATES
KNOW IN LIFE WE SHARE A/ COMMON FATE
DEATH SPARES NO MAN /HIS COMING DATE

YOU BLEED BLOOD RED AS/ WE THE SAME
WE LIVE WE LEARN / TILL OUR SUN HAS SET
ALL FLESH SHALL KNOW THE ETERNAL REST

RELINQUISHED OF PAIN/ RETURNED TO THE PLACE /FROM WHENCE WE CAME/ BY DEATHS GRACE
FOR ONLY WITHIN/ OUR MORTAL COIL/ WITHIN OUR FLESH/ CAN WE SUFFER
(2nd TIME CAN WE SUFFER 3X HOLD NOTE)

DEATH IT IS A LOATHSOME BLESSING/ FEARED BY THOSE WHO DON’T UNDERSTAND THAT/
DEATH IT IS ETERNAL HEALING 2X

DON’T THINK YOU EXEMPT YOU’RE/ COMMON PLACED
YOU SEE SUN SET /AS WE THE SAME
DEATH IS THE DARKNESS/ BEFORE THE DAWN

EXIT THE SKIN AS / YOU CEASE YOUR BREATH
TO BEAR LIFE / WERE OWED A PRIZE IN DEATH
BEAR THE PLIGHT/ TO PLAY THE GAME OF LIFE

DEATH IT IS A LOATH SOME BLESSING/ FEAR BY THOSE WHO DON’T UNDERSTAND THAT
DEATH IT IS ETERNAL HEALING/ DEATH IS ONLY A NEW BEGIN

AS WATER RETURNS TO THE OCEANS/ OUR SOULS RETURN TO THE COSMIC
RELINQUISHED FROM OUR OF CONFLICT/ RELINQUISHED
IN LIFE THERE’S ONE THING CERTAIN/ WE LIVE WE BREATHE WITH A PURPOSE
AND DEATH COMPLETES THE CYCLE /

AS/ WATER RETURNS/ TO THE OCEANS/SO/ TOO /DO OUR SOULS/ RETURN TO THE COSMIC/
RELINQUISHED/ FROM/ THE HANDS / OF OUR CONFLICTS
DEATH/ IS ONLY A NEW BEGIN/ A NEW BEGINNING ITS ARMS AWAIT US ALL /
