Praise the War Machine
Praise the War Machine: A Haunting Tale of Desolation and Defiance
Lyrics
I'm a bastard son
I am an illegitimate child
The broken dreams of a thousand young
The shattered aspirations of numerous young individuals
Forgotten heroes fed to thirsty guns
Forgotten heroes sacrificed to insatiable weaponry
Unsung anthems choked in blood
Uncelebrated anthems drowned in blood
No fucking court of law
No justice from any legal system
Dictators, thieves and whores
Leaders, criminals, and prostitutes
Praise the war machine
Applaud the destructive war machine
That laid to waste a wretch like me
That destroyed someone as wretched as me
One thousand dead by my own hand
A thousand lives taken by my own actions
I make my way through the promised land
Navigating through a land of promises
Cluster bombs and razor wire
Explosive devices and barriers of sharp wire
Racist hate increase
Racial hatred on the rise
Vanity's the new messiah
Vanity portrayed as the new savior
As I pray for endless sleep
Praying for an eternal slumber
No fucking court of law
No justice from any legal system
Dictators, thieves and whores
Leaders, criminals, and prostitutes
Yours is not to reason why
Your duty is not to question why
Nor is it to make reply
Nor is it to engage in debate
Yours is but to do and die
Your role is simply to act and face death
Into the mouth of Hell go I
I willingly enter the horrors of Hell
I can't abide, I can't accept
I cannot tolerate, I cannot approve
They get away with murder
They escape punishment for their crimes
I can't forgive, I can't forget
I cannot forgive, I cannot forget
Deliver them unto slaughter
Consign them to slaughter
