ARENA OF BLOOD Lyrics - Maria K. Glass / Music - Philip Wolfe
Tis not long before the Romans arrive
I tried to warn them so they could survive
Arena of blood
Evil one’s shadow across my path
All will witness the aftermath
In this glorious nation
Better know your station
Fears and trepidation
Give way to dissipation
Arena of blood . . . theatre of pain
Arena of blood . . . theatre of pain
Arena of blood . . . gladiators game
Arena of blood . . . theatre of pain
Arena of blood . . . gladiators game
Arena of blood .... theatre of pain
A gladiator wounded
A man once so proud
Awaiting his fate on the whim of the crowd
Arena of blood
Favored by the emperor
I plead his case
And find myself longing for his warm embrace
Arena of blood . . . theatre of pain
Arena of blood . . . gladiators game
Arena of blood . . . theatre of pain
Arena of blood . . . gladiators game
