Delilah
Sweet daughter Delilah now nameless for eternity
shadows in the meadow still whisper what will never be
God is alive. That is a lie.
cling onto your lies and watch them fade away
death is inside you and this world is weak
its all you'll ever know, its all you'll ever be
Sweet slaughter of silence now shameless out for all to see
mulattos in the ghetto just made you what you came to be
spread open your thighs and close your eyes
let them inside, now put your blade away
your breath is beside you and your words are weak
its all they'll ever hear, its all they'll ever see
Deep violet of violence, all blameless for atrocity
glamour in stilettos, enslaved so you can walk out free
bottled up rye, a breath of high
sever old ties and watch them fade away
death is inside you and your world is weak
its all you'll ever know. Its all you'll ever be.
