Painting the River Red

A small idyllic town location: Europe early 90's
Dark clouds are approaching
The armies of darkness are moving in
There’s no escape
Evil has shown its face
The town besieged all exits sealed
It’s time to make up for the past
If you’re different you’ll be extinct
You will all be humiliated and killed
In such inhumane ways
That your kind will never set their foot here again
We hate you
It’s your fault
Although we have known
Each other since the dawn of time
The river painted red
Streets filled with corpses
Houses are burned to the ground
The flame of life extinguished
Where it had just been lit
Once friends now turned enemies
Executions in the streets killed like stray dogs
Slicing throats on the golden bridge
And thrown in the water like dirt
Women and children forced inside
Locked doors the house is set ablaze
Cold laughter outside drowned by the screams of torment
The river painted red
Streets filled with corpses
Houses are burned to the ground
The flame of life extinguished
Where it had just been lit
Once friends now turned enemies
