The land we once called Holy

The land we once called Holy dies like Christ
The iron walls, the guns, the sacrifice.
Evil comes,religions onward fight

Angels and archangels put to flight
Bedouin tents are darker than black ice
The land we once called Holy bleeds like Christ

In the deserts of the soulless nights
Mothers clutch their  babies, tanks roll by.
Evil comes,religion God denies

After Holy death, will man survive?
The tortured ones  will torture others thrice
The land we once called Holy dies like Christ

Dazed by resurrection in dark night,
Where and when the beast that slouches twice?
Evil comes,religion God denied

Where can we lose our hatred and embrace
Those that killed our spirit and our eyes
The land we once called Holy dies like Christ
Evil comes, the grave is gaping wide,
