Cruel Blade of the Guillotine - Skinless

Pummeling hoards, sharpened steel

A darkness falls across the fields

Bludgeoning and blunt

Cold and corrupt

Lead to the alter

Placed and erased

No hesitation

Dumped in a ditch

Barely covered

Onto the next

Of annihilation

Less mouths to feed

Less disease to spread

A slice away from freedom

A step away from life

To a place much worse

Existence that you’ve lead

Vicious mob, sharpened steel

Eclipse of fate across the sea

Frozen and sealed

Cold and corrupt

Lead to the alter

Placed and erased

No hesitation

Dumped in a ditch

Barely covered

Onto the next

Of annihilation

Less mouths to feed

Less disease to spread

Obliteration would be kind

Suffering slowly

Flailing, failure

Unknown numbness

Stabbing aimlessly

Sharpened to perfection

Crafted with intent (steel falls)

Heated in a searing flame

Truth exceeds the pain

Cruel blade, Bludgeoning and blunt

Cruel blade, of the guillotine

Cruel blade, Cold and corrupt

Cruel blade, off with their heads
