Anhelo

Lyrics

My skin and my clothes colored red from the dust
 So full of rage that my brain's 'bout to bust
 I've lived out my life without a blemish of sin
 I'm not out for murder, just bloody revenge
 O sun up above, throw down pity on me
 Lay light on the dark path that I, Lord, might see
 Done said it a hundered times, say it again!
 I'm not out for murder, just grant me revenge
 When that which you thirst for is redder than blood
 When angels with trumpets unleash heaven's flood
 Ain't nothing you do will keep Satan at bay
 He'll climb on your back and he'll lead you astray
 He whispers the things that you're aching to hear
 As he pours bile and venom so deep in your ear
 When your body's a prison and your mind is a cage
 The Devil blows cruelly on the embers of rage
 With no Sword of Righteousness, no Sheild of Light
 And a promise of vengence that's darker than night
 An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth
 And the blood on your hands bespeaks volumes of truth
 The blood in your veins crying loudly for justice
 That old Prince of Lies whispers warmly to trust us
 Pray the Good Lord will find him and root out his tounge
 'Fore down the abyss your poor body is flung
 The glare of the sun helps me gather my thoughts
 I choke on the smell of my soul as it rots
 My thoughts turn to one thing, and that thing is murder
 I jump on my pale horse to find those who'd hurt her
 O Lord up above, show your mercy on me
 I've lived a good life now, devoted to thee
 Now turn a blind eye, for I need absolution
 'Cause I'm riding to Hell seeking black retribution
 When that which you thirst for is redder than blood
 When angels with trumpets unleash heaven's flood
 Ain't nothing you do will keep Satan at bay
 He'll climb on your back and he'll lead you astray
 He whispers the things that you're aching to hear
 As he pours bile and venom so deep in your ear
 When your body's a prison and your mind is a cage
 The Devil blows cruelly on the embers of rage
 With no Sword of Righteousness, no Sheild of Light
 And the promise of vengence that's darker than night
 An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth
 And the blood on your hands bespeaks volumes of truth
 The blood in your veins crying loudly for justice
 That old Prince of Lies whispers warmly to trust us
 Pray the Good Lord will find him and root out his toungue
 'Fore down the abyss your poor body is flung
