Lyrics

Fight, fighting
Look at all the fighting
Fight, fighting,
Witness all the wars
Alarm, alarming
Death .... is alarming
Lead, leaders
Lead us into war

Bleed ...
Your time to know
Death processed
What a fucked up way to go
Must confess
To your simple foe
Bleed ...
Or die

.....  your hatred
Most powerful .....
Death art thou so sacred
Killing, just keep on killing
...
Most powerful...
Death art thou so sacred
Killing, just keep on killing

Dawn, dawning
Dawning of a new ending
Mourn, mourning
You can’t choose which one
Ice, ice age
Just the earth’s way of cleansing
Cleanse, cleansing
So let’s start again

Who’s the one 
Who traded milk  for gain
Here’s the gun
Now go emboss(?) some pain
Here’s the well
Pull me new shame
Who did this to us? 

....your hatred
Most powerful...
Death art thou so sacred
Killing, just keep on killing
....your hatred
Most powerful ....
Death art thou so sacred
Killing, just keep on killing you 

Poor fools, yay
In the end...... 
Accept that human nature
Last to pretend that this does not occur
Do not be surprised if paranoia is only right 

Bleed ...
Your time to know
Death processed
What a fucked up way to go
Must confess
To your simple foe(?)
Bleed ...
Or die

...your hatred
Most powerful...
Death art thou so sacred
Killing, just keep on killing
..hatred
Most powerful...
Death art thou so sacred
Killing, just keep on killing you
