Carnivorous Lamb

I saw lilies made nettle by a wind gust
White snow turned into coal
Rivers go upstream the waterfalls
Heaviest lumps of lead soar

They arise as night falls
Lambs growing fangs of the wolves
Howling before the kill
Arise as night falls

Until the last heart bleeds
You come and drain us like a leech
Prophet of Judas kiss
Refuse to practice what you preach
Spawn of an impious breed
Can't hide yourself forever
As you're the sheep
That mauls the savage wolf

I've heard you crying out from hunger and thirst
While being the banquet host
Seen you pretending to shiver with winter's cold
And then idling in the warmth

I've seen you stabbing in the back with a child's innocence
And let the flesh rot
Forever victim, forever ogre
Carnivorous lamb

Forever victim, forever ogre
Carnivorous lamb

They arise as night falls
Lambs growing fangs of the wolves
Howling before the kill
Arise as night falls

Until the last heart bleeds
You come and drain us like a leech
Prophet of Judas kiss
Refuse to practice what you preach
Spawn of an impious breed
Can't hide yourself forever
As you're the sheep
That mauls the savage wolf
