[E]
[A#]
[E] Do it by the soul, and help it contain, and help those minds of you all.
Yes, and pull those bloods, and clutch yourself as you are.
[Am] Man of tyranny, forget those [Bm] victims, through this [Am] blast of the pain.
Rapeful maid, and witch like [Bm] style, only the worst of the [F] lot.
[Em] Death to all, [N]
[C] death to all.
[E] [A#m]
[E] They did what?
What do with me?
[E] Try to escape, the glass of my hand, and life will no longer exist.
[Am] Here I cry, save us [Bm] from, the [Am] hell in which we live.
We turn our heads, golden [Bm] sky, listen [Am] for the steel.

[G] absorb.
[C#] [C]

Like the blood of the king, of the queen,
