Sol Invictus
tooth and claw
Select language to translate this lyric
The heavens open, and bloody rain does fall
On the good and the bad, on the rich and the poor
Insane laughter splits the heavens
Spits on the prayers of the masses
Is God in his heaven, is all right with the world?
Is God in his heaven, wrapped in a shroud?
See the dove fall, beneath the eagle's claw
Obeys the one law, of tooth and claw
The law of the strong: this is our law
And the joy of the world
Up to the heavens, an eagle soared
To meet with the sun
And where love is the call
Up to the heavens, an eagle soared
To talk with the sun
And where blood is the law
With shield and sword
And tooth and claw
The law of the strong
And the joy of the world
