Shame of the 20th Century 06:53
lyrics
Shame of the 20th century Part A Verse 1 Baptized in blood Together with fate I’ll do anything to quench the thirst of my sate Black hearts with white skin Blaspheming with flesh Hide behind the cross Worthy they are not Verse 2 A ceremonial gathering For lives once told The noose is tightened By hearts turned cold Satan smiles The fire burns on A shot in the head because a man didn’t belong Pre-chorus A parade through the streets Genocide has begun White is right you repeat As you lift the gun Chorus 1 What a world we live in Kill each then repent our sins Believe in acceptance Then hang a man, crucify him Place the noose around the neck If the drop fails a shot in the head Vital organs torn from the corpse Engulfed in fire, life has gone Part B Verse 3 How did things turn out this way? A putrid world of racial hate If I could ask one question before The eternal hand takes me away Why does this happen? Bothers brutalised because of race A trench of gore lies between us The only certainty of life is death Part C Verse 4 Look around you and you’ll see the hate that exists In this place these times The crowds gather all smiling the same sick smile To witness the murder of a fellow human being Its not right What a democracy, racial superiority Crimes against humanity pledged to Christianity Chorus 2 Shame of the 20th century Shame of us all

By the Light of the Moon 05:37
lyrics
By the Light of the Moon By the light of the moon she takes her final breath By the light of the moon she crawls and fate does the rest Visions prophesizing hope that is not to pass Knowledge cannot penetrate her silvery clear glass pane She remembers all that has come and gone and what will never pass The clairvoyant sees her destiny and horror grips the teller fast By the light of the moon By the light of the moon There lies a clock of doom ‘Cause By the light of the moon All of the has come to pass There lies… a clock a doom in her chest Demise… behind her back death manifests The knife…lies behind her tender breasts Then a man rips out the knife and tears her to shreds
