Blood within the snow (song)

Blood within the snow (song)

A Poem by Nightmist
"

This is a song about a horrible truth being hidden by a beautiful lie

"
Look outside
How can you say the world is fine
Can't you see the bleeding line
in the snow?

The world is bright
The blood has taint its perfect hide
it is unfair to say that light
has to go

But what if it ends here
What if the light never returns
What if the fires will never burn
anymore

Oh what if it ends here
Their secrets buried in the snow
bodies and sins we'll never know
as good as gone

They say there's blood within the water
But now there's blood upon the snow
impurity, their sons and daughters
lay there in death, so we would know

That there is blood within the snow

I see it now
Impurities in perfect white
A streak of darkness in the light
I didn't know
They used the snow to hide their crimes
Buried the hope we'd win this fight
To keep us cold

But it doesn't end here
We are the light within this storm
We have the fire within our souls
To make it burn

Oh no it doesn't end here
We know the sins that they have done
bodies and secrets they thought gone
Not anymore

They say there's blood within the water
well now that blood has taint the snow
In purity their sons and daughters
lay there in death so we would know

That it's their blood beneath the snow

Look at their sins, Oh Holy Father
Your winter taint by blooming red
The crimson crimes of sons and daughters
Deface Your world, call it defence

But there is blood within the snow

They stole Your light to hide their darkness
Made silence bow to their demands
They hid the truth to keep us thoughtless
I will make sure this is the end

There will be blood upon the snow



The blood has stolen all the focus
And now the snow's no more that dread
Forgotten promises, so hopeless
The positive drained from the land

But there was life beneath the snow
