lyrics

What child is this
That hangs from a hook?
With soulless eyes
Which downwards look?
His skin removed, dried and cured
And made as a frame for a book
Missing limbs, contorted bone
Father weeps for his firstborn

Whom are these maidens
Young and pure?
What cruel torment did they endure?
Hung upside down, split open
With faces rendered obscure
In stillness and the cold confide
In terrible pain they have died

Oh, scions, sons and daughters
Infants robbed from their mothers
They hang up high in this dark room
What villain devised your doom?

Under what crime has invoked
Such monstrous retribution
A curse upon this wretched world
That slaughtered a generation
