Lyrics:
From the magnolias hang the strangest fruit
Burnt apparitions, dismantled for all to see
Caressed by soft wind, destroyed by weak men
Look into the bleeding jaws of oblivion
Black sludge, is filling the cracks
All is bright, all is fire
Held down by the chains of ephemera
No remorse, no despair
But a ungodly lust
For the branded, for the shattered
To be pulled down to the depths
Violence moves the wheels of history
And blood is coursing through its spokes
The veil abandons all the light, all the light
The haze of anguished cries
It aches the bone, conceals the eye
Forever more
Let them see
What they’ve done
What they’ve done
