Refuse to accept power given by blood
Fight for yourself so the past holds no strife
Devils may cry though blacker than mud

No man may stay clean in spite of the flood
Cut them in two by the blade of your knife
Refuse to accept power given by blood

Bloom in the night, no longer a bud
Walk on in your path, find strength in your life
Devils may cry though blacker than mud

It covers you wholly, mistaken for mud
Demons must be alone, no children or wife
Refuse to accept power given by blood

A man that cries tears, full of red blood
Save them from darkness, rebellion gives life
Devils may cry though blacker than mud

Flowers in place standing after the flood
The time is past that you hold up a knife
Refuse to accept power given by blood
Devils may cry though blacker than blood
