Hosea wept
"The child’s skull becomes the cup of Christ,
Blood spilled for power, for sacrifice.
Innocence crushed beneath holy lies—
A chalice raised as humanity dies."Verse 1: Ancient Echoes
[Female Vocals - haunting tone]
In scrolls of old, Hosea wept for doom,
Infants dashed, wombs rent in war's grim bloom.
Isaiah saw Babylon's fall, little ones shattered 'fore sight,
Prophets' ink bled red through the endless night.
[Piano intensifies slightly; Cello swells]Chorus
[Female Vocals - powerful, emotional]
A child’s skull—raised as a holy cup,
Drink their blood; it’s never enough.
No god absolves what humans have done;
The blood of the innocent stains everyone.
[Cello mournful melody]Verse 2: Modern Ashes
[Female Vocals - reflective]
Sabbath hush, Ramadan fast unbroken,
Feb twenty-eighth, girls' school turned to token.
Dozens young souls, first to the pyre,
Bombs from skies no mercy know, hell's fire.
[Female Narrator - fast]: "Netanyahu cries 'blood libel' loud,
Tunnels hide 'neath Gaza’s shroud."
[Piano minor chords; Hand drums enter]Bridge: Celestial Warning
[Piano single notes; Cello staccato tension]
Blood moon rises March third's crimson arc,
Purim's veil, Ramadan's midpoint mark.
Joel's wonders, moon to blood released,
Revelation's seal—will the innocents cease?
[Female Narrator - fast]: "No gods nor prayers break this chain;
Reason alone heals the pain."Verse 3: Final Disgrace
[Female Vocals - urgent]
No more shields made of flesh and bone;
No more blood spilled for thrones unknown.
A child’s skull—the final disgrace—
Raised as a chalice in humanity’s face.
[Piano dramatic build]Chorus Reprise
[Female Vocals - louder, urgent]
A child’s skull—raised as a holy cup,
Drink their blood; it’s never enough.
From Persian plots to Iran's dust today,
Heaven's ledger—dash us all away?Outro
[Piano haunting single notes; Cello hopeful fade]
[Female Vocals - soft]
We don’t need gods to know what’s right;
Let reason rise, end endless fight.
[Female Narrator - fast]
"A world reborn, unmade chains of faith,
No more shields, no holy wraith—
Just humanity, standing tall once more."
