Mines, where rubies dwell

Flicker and flare in the fires of hell

Color of war and rage

Banners that flash, flaunt and glow

Color of carnage, of sickness and death

Gasping for breath

Forced faint forms, of power born

String the victims gate of life torn

Hail the red, of living blood

Let loose by steel, of fleeing flood

Strong are we, to eyes that tire

Death and despair, war and desire

Hot hue, riot and flame

Bring an end to this unequal game
