LyricMeaning

Blood from the Tree
Brown Bird

I had the look of a lonely stranger

Licking the wounds of a foreign land

Was I the cause that brought this danger

Or just a shadow of the fallen man

Then the crowd swept me away

Through the sirens and the guns


I staggered on through the rocks and rubble

Right in the middle of the fallen ones

And I could not but stare

At the evil we had done


Hallowed be thy hellish nature

Life won't be if death won't take her

Hallowed be thy hellish nature

Life won't be if death won't take her


So many lives to the blades of battle

So many battles since our days begun

So we refresh the tree of freedom


Manure the flesh and the rain our blood

Is there an end to all this death

Of the kind we can avoid?


So we refresh the tree of freedom

Manure the flesh and the rain our blood

Is there an end to all this death

Of the kind we can avoid?


Hallowed be thy hellish nature

Life won't be if death won't take her

Hallowed be thy hellish nature

Life won't be if death won't take her

Hallowed be thy hellish nature

Life won't be if death won't take her

Hallowed be thy hellish nature

Life won't be if death won't take her
