trounce - the wheel lyrics

born in the purple of a southern king
queen at the nubile age of seventeen
shining with wisdom and beauty
with a celestial crown no one could see
the emperor of men
summoned her
but he heard her words
sound like a threat
as her speech was pure
truthful and bright
through her lips was speaking
the most high
and so came the lashes and lashes and lashes
of caesar’s wrath
blood flowed from her back
blood flowed from her back in streams
seven angels were sent by god
with heavenly salve for her wounds to heal
to appease the tyrant’s devouring ire
the hangmen brought in the breaking wheel
a grim monster of iron and spikes
to break the virgin who would not kneel
the grinder shattered at her leaving the maid unharmed
and they saw milk flowing and flowing from her open neck
and then they saw milk flowing and flowing from her open neck
while oil was running from her bones
running from her bones
running from her bones
