Blood for Blood (1993)

Lyrics

In the dirt that stains my clothing Are the ditches I've crawled through On your face: the scars of anguish Born facing down the truth You cry out for mercy You shiver in the frost But our hearts are chained to anger As in my sights you're locked Blood for blood There must be an end The nightmare unfolds Again and again Blood for blood In the hard gray dawn Revenge can't answer These wrongs Nothing is forgotten: All the history's on the shelf Nothing is forgotten: You tell me so yourself As we stand to give our witness Of the cold and bitter hand There's a killer here among us Waiting out what time he can Blood for blood There must be an end The nightmare unfolds Again and again Blood for blood In the hard gray dawn Revenge can't answer These wrongs Maybe somebody Holds the answer Maybe some love Can keep us warm Only in your eyes Only in your eyes Can I see/seek shelter from the storm I am trying to remember The book and the words But nothing comes to mind – In the end, what have we learned? Our mothers and fathers Are removed from their lands Tell me now: Where is the pity? Is it slipping through our hands? Blood for blood There must be an end The nightmare unfolds Again and again Blood for blood In the hard gray dawn Revenge can't answer These wrongs
