Desprate Cry
Sepultura · Arise
When life ends in pain
Conceive the last mistake
Which belongs to all
Creation of insane rulse
All we hear:
Desperate cry
Death the coldest wind
Seeps into your pores
A nation born of hate
Forgotten distant time
Creation of insane rule
All we hear:
Desperate cry
Endless empty maze
Despair, distress and silence
A poison vacuum, infinity
Life, lies, deceit
Mute souls end in silence
Oceans tainted with blood
Empty promises of hope
Buried deep, infected ground
Creation of insane rule
All we hear:
Desperate cry
Cry!
