A Town called live and die

 The red Raven floats
In the haunting ruby sky
Past the razors edge
In a Town called live and die

With backstreets of an nightmare
Street lights flicker and fade
Sterile and infertile
Where nobody gets laid

With the smell of desperation
Which lingers in the air
The main roads a cancerous vein
Which leads to nowhere

A one eyed mongrel
As dark as a night in hell
Dissolves into the shadows
where brave men fought and fell

Blood stains in the gutters
faesces fester in the street
Men and women skin and bone
Lifeless on there feet

A sinister siren
Transcends from above
Micro chipped in single lines
Devoid of freedom and love

The meat wagon in the distance
It rattles along the track
Now there crammed in like cattle
And their never coming back
