Manilla Road - Rites Of Blood

One night among the graves
I found a sacred place
Where blood of life still flows
From sacrificial blows
Ah, hidden from light of sun
Ah, the Rites have now begun

Inside this sanctum
Blood still feeds the gods
Blasphemous Requiem
The Rites of Blood

I hid among the rocks
And watched the Dance Macabre Upon the altar stone
A young girl writhed and moaned
Ah, with spikes made out of gold
Ah, they nailed her to the stone

Inside this sanctum
Blood still feeds the gods
Blasphemous Requiem
The Rites of Blood

Nothing sacred here
In this place of fear
Where the blood runs cold
