In this body Before this body All your hands are stained with blood You who wish To see us dead Such iniquitous design Hang me from the tyburn tree Among the gallows You see me sway A prime example Of moral decay Among your subjects In hatred's sway A shining beacon Of misplaced faith Take that rope and tie my noose Take that rope and tie my noose In this body Before this body Who are you to be my judge? You who wish To see us dead Silence is complicity Hang me from the tyburn tree Among the gallows You see me sway A prime example Of moral decay Among your subjects In hatred's sway A shining beacon Of misplaced faith Take that rope and tie my noose Take that rope and tie my noose Heat from fire And fire from heat In the face of your oppression I bear witness And I have bled In the name of my conviction Power concedes nothing Heat from fire And fire from heat You believe I am a demon Power concedes nothing I am death And I am legion We are many here as one I have lain Upon the altar As the sacrificial lamb What are you willing to lose? What is this but genocide? You have sinned And you have lied Your coffers brim With the blood of those who died And you have drunk From poisoned streams Your chalice filled With the blood of the diseased Yet here you stand To guide your flock And on they march Along the bosque And from your cup They drink so deep And never ask For why you weep You will fall from Heaven's heights Claiming that you've Seen such sights But we know You are blind Neither cleansed Nor divine You shall drown in A lake of fire Carried by your Acolytes But we know You are blind Neither cleansed Nor divine Searing flesh Melting eyes Boiling blood Sweet demise In this body Before this body In this body Before this body How much blood is on your hands? You who wear the stolen crown Never shall your tower stand Brick by brick, we'll tear it down
