The rust runs off red
Machinery froze
Black fluids bled
Collecting the dead
Sun’s bleach expose
The rust runs off red
Flame not right yet
Bodies decompose
Black fluids bled
Bound and broken treads
Rendering of foes
The rust runs off red
Bloated children fed
Torn pennant blows
Black fluids bled
Grinding bones for bread
Stark machines pose
The rust runs off red
Black fluids bled
