Blood In The Apple by Motherjane
Blood In The Apple lyrics
I look into the dark pool of suffering
And I�m transfixed in its stare
Like a moth lured into a universe screaming
As death comes alive in its godless air
Watched it steal succor from my sleep
With dreams conceived in a poisoned womb
Suffer me tears of anger to weep
And eyes that feel like open wounds.
They say home�s a place that ends a journey
Mine�s just a picture gone up in flames
Burning in homage to another mans memory
A guiltless being who once held my name.
And now you see me, cos you�re me
Today�s victim of yesterdays �war.
I heeded not your cries for mercy
Coz every gatekeeper of hell , is sometimes the door.
Fed on fruit from the desert, a bush laden with hate
crazed by a sorrow that like poison cuts thru my veins.
I swung my sword, I glimpsed his forked tongue too late
There�s blood in the apple & nothing to gain
except...
maybe...
one more ripple in the circle of pain
one more cripple in the circle of pain
again.
