Hourglass of ash

Hungry maw, bright dread of flame, scorching flesh, in furnace ablaze
Cadaver fog, up in the night sky, barbed wire, a web of suicide,
Sobibor, mouths forever silent, majdanek, wreath of smoke
Treblinka, a child’s stolen years, belzec ash, a giant human sieve.
Time stands still, in the hour glass of ash
Time stands still, in the hour glass of ash
Time stands still, in the hour glass of ash
Hungry maw, bright dread of flame, scorching flesh, in furnace ablaze
Cadaver fog, up in the night sky, barbed wire, a web of suicide,
Sobibor, mouths forever silent, majdanek, wreath of smoke
Treblinka, a child’s stolen years, belzec ash, a giant human sieve.
Time stands still, in the hour glass of ash
Time stands still, in the hour glass of ash
Spell singers and earth rulers, grasping at dreams with grinding claws
On death we have fed, by greed we are led
To the sound of the devils applause.
