Blood-Soaked Country

I've heard your warning
Still I don't turn away
And I've felt your torture
And still I disobey
I'm wounded, weary
No you have not been weak
You've taken your victory
And still I'll never plead
You've seen me battered
But you haven't seen me beat
I tell you, I've suffered
Like you have never seen
You've drank from my waters
You've eaten from my plate
You're poisoned with my slaughter
Now feel my endless ache
You're hanging your shovel
Your labor's far from done. Frailing, fragile
Your time has come and gone
So child I remind you
You are in my debt
So beg for my mercy
Cause you've seen nothing yet
