Alex Parker - Another Bleeding Heart

now there is a line 
in genesis nine 
after the flood 
kill men who shed the blood 
sharp is your needle 
revenge is evil 
wrong or right 
blind is the justice 
cold as a judas kiss 
dark is the night 

dead petals falling on the bed 
white crosses hanging overhead 
deep is the final breath 
long is a man's death 

thou shalt not kill 
the cry from calvary's hill 
but a soul is a soul 
as we slaughter our own 

locked in a cage 
handguns at our heads 
singing gospels of rage 
saying they're better off dead 

one prick of the skin 
wipes away sin 
an eye for an eye 
it's our hearts we're losing 

dead petals falling on the bed 
white crosses hanging overhead 
deep is the final breath 
long is a man's death 

sharp is your needle
