unwoman - written in red lyrics

Loading...

written in red in their protest stands
for the gods of the world to see
on the dooming wall their bodiless hands
have blazoned “upharsin” and flaring brands
illumine the message: “seize the lands!
open the prisons and make men free!”
flame out the living
words of the dead

written in red
written in red
words of the dead
written in red

gods of the world, their mouths are dumb!
your guns have spoken and they are dust
but the shrouded living, whose hearts were numb
have felt the beat of a wakening drum
within them sounding the dead men’s tongue
calling: “smite off the ancient rust!”
have beheld “resurrexit”
the word of the dead

written in red
written in red
words of the dead
written in red
words of the dead
written in red
words of the dead
written in red

bear it aloft, o’ roaring flame!
skyward aloft, where all may see
slaves of the world, our cause is the same
one is the immemorial shame
one is the struggle, and in one name
manhood, we battle to set men free
“uncurse us the land!”
burn the words of the dead

written in red
written in red
written in red
written in red
written in red
written in red
