Lyrics

[Intro] Here's some songs I got together last week Uh, I don't know the title of the first one Maybe uh, "Rivers of the Blood" [Verse 1] Have you seen the rivers of the blood? First a trickle, then a flood First the ocean's pounding roar Then a tidal wave hits upon the shore Knives and arrows fell like rain And the powder burst aflame And the flames they flew so high Dropped their poison down from the sky [Chorus] In the shadow of the bygone days Millions died in a million ways Now the whining of the missile's call It's time to rise or it's time to fall For now one million bombs are stored But they keep building more and more Can't you hear the warning sound? Don't you know there's still time to turn around? [Chorus] In the shadow of the bygone days Millions died in a million ways Now the whining of the missile's call It's time to rise or it's time to fall For now one million bombs are stored They keep building more and more Can't you you hear the warning sound? Don't you know there's still time to turn around? Don't you know there's still time to turn around? To turn around
