I never really looked into the lyrics of this song. But when I did, I was blown away. Besides the fact that it's one of my most favorite songs of all times and contains one of the greatest solos in Rock History, it also contains Great songwriting. I'd like to hear some criticism on it. See what you think. Read below:
Floods
A dead issue,
don't wrestle with it,
deaf ears are sleeping
A guilty bliss,
so inviting (let me in),
nailed to the cross
I feel you, relate to you, accuse you
Wash away us all,
take us with the floods
Then throughout the night, they were raped and executed
Cold hearted world
Your language unheard of,
the vast sound of tuning out
The rash of negativity
is seen one sid edly,
burn away the day
The nervous, the drifting, the heaving
Wash away us all, take us with the floods
Then throughout the day mankind played with grenades
Cold hearted world
And at night they might bait the pentagram
Extinguishing the sun
Wash away man, take him with the floods

This isn't the land of opportunity, it's the land of competition.
