see a cross 
So rotting and sad 
I see a flag 
bloody torn rag

Oh, the games we play 
Oh, the lies we tell 
Oh, the hearts that are broken 
Between heaven and [bad word] 

And the stones will fall 
Never to rise 
And the world will [bad word] 
And close her eyes

In this black night 
In these jaws of steel 
All our battles lost 
Beneath an iron hill

Oh, what damned mankind 
And all his woes 
And I'd murder Cupid 
With his bow

Across this earth 
poison seeps 
From house to house 
That plague does creep

With smiles and whispers 
To blunt ourselves 
With fools' gold 
For our souls
