there’s a beast awakening
tugging at my feet
and it won’t be satisfied
‘til it’s taken me
there’s a cold wind blowing
rattling the trees
and won’t be satisfied
'til they know it’s me
there’ll be
new blood on leaves
new blood on leaves
new blood on leaves
i’m a darkness growing
i’m a violent sea
when i come and cut you down
you’ll know that it’s me
in the eye of a reckoning
everyone is a sheep
but i’ve become the lion’s mouth
so settle in my teeth
there’ll be
new blood on leaves
new blood on leaves
new blood on leaves
fate holds you
like an ugly noose
the way you choose
was it worth dying for?
there’ll be
new blood on leaves
new blood on leaves
new blood on leaves
new blood
new blood
new blood on the leaves
there’ll be
new blood on the leaves
new blood on the leaves
new blood
new blood
