Shiva

Waiting for the day to sink
The sun to fall beneath the brink
Of horizons, with chains to link them
To the Earth
Then he wakes and makes His stand
Broken cross in His right hand
And written on a gold head-band
The sacraments of death

Shiva
Shiva
Shiva, march on

Riding with the dogs of wind
Across a battlefield of sin
With accusation delivered in
A final ice stare
His chariot of steel is drawn
By silver horses of the dawn
Fiery nostrils, eyes of scorn
Hidden in their blinding glare

Shiva
Shiva
Shiva, march on

Not only in our waking hours
The river ride the rapids down
To where the sea, with gluttony
Divides the waters and drowns
And so it is with all our lives
We can never escape Him
And in the end we all must answer
To Shiva the destroyer

Shiva
Shiva
Shiva, march on
