Aztec Jade – Desperate Land lyrics

Album: Paradise Lost

A parody of man's intent
The price becomes irrelevant
Brother killing brother dead
Bloodshed turns the Danube red

Sovereignty
To rule thy own
Ruthlessly
Claims bloody thrones

A nation torn by civil strife
Children cling to ebbing life
A prayer for peace to bless this state
No pawn wins in stalemate
