Nemesis

Leaves
Fallen leaves
Fallen leaves suffuse the path
The wind hums in a minor key
The melody of death
Haze
There’s a haze
There’s a haze amongst the trees
A deafening kind of silence
And sights that make you freeze

One on one
Blood for blood
Nemesis
One on one
The reckoning will come
Cut on cut
Blow for blow
Nemesis
One on one
And blood will fleck the Sun

Men
There are men
There are men in robes and rags
Hanging on the oak tree boughs
Left for the crows and rats
Heads
There are heads
There are heads that line the way
Skewered onto upright stakes
'Cause someone had to pay

One on one
Blood for blood
Nemesis
One on one
The reckoning will come
Cut on cut
Blow for blow
Nemesis
One on one
And blood will fleck the Sun

One on one
Blood for blood
Nemesis
One on one
The reckoning will come
Cut on cut
Blow for blow
Nemesis
One on one
And blood will fleck the Sun
