Commandments
Divine Discord: Unraveling the Religious Turmoil in Pestilence's Commandments
Lyrics
Mutual aversion and disgust, religious facts
Mutual dislike and repulsion based on religious beliefs
Fighting for the land on which they live
Struggle for ownership of their residing land
Separation of different races, different nations
Segregation among different ethnicities and nations
Disparity, no solidarity
Lack of unity or mutual support
Deuce of a mess, impeachment of faith
A chaotic situation, questioning and challenging faith
Preachings, reconciliations insincere
False preaching and insincere attempts at reconciliation
Needless battles, die for the immortal one
Unnecessary wars resulting in death for a divine being
Loyalty persuades, you'll persevere
Encouragement from loyalty to persist despite challenges
Followers of false belief praise idolatry
Adherents of false beliefs praising idol worship
Worship statues made of stone the adoration
Worship of statues made of stone, an act of devotion
Depiction of the gods in human shapes
Depiction of gods in human forms
Inhuman rituals, biblical transgression
Acts violating moral or religious laws from the Bible
A weapon in your right-hand, in your left a rosary
Armed with a weapon and a rosary, symbolizing conflicting beliefs in war
The polytheistic-monotheistic war
Conflict between polytheistic and monotheistic beliefs
Believers of Almight prepare to die
Believers in a supreme power ready to die for their faith
Explain to me, what are you fighting for ?
Questioning the reason for the ongoing conflict
Shrouds of smoke, moonsoonclouds in the sky
Scenes of destruction, chaos, and religious structures burning
Temples and crucifix' on fire
Destruction of religious symbols and places
Malevolent rage in distressed areas
Intense anger and hostility in troubled areas
Admission of true faith is their desire
Desire for acknowledgment of genuine faith
Riots and slaughter, mortification of the dead
Violence and killing during riots, disrespect for the deceased
Victimize the ones you despise
Targeting and victimizing despised groups or individuals
Breathing smother of pyromaniac conflagrations
Intentional setting of fires causing suffocation and destruction
Obstructed respiration, affected eyes
Physical effects of smoke and fire on breathing and sight
Commandments
Reference to the commandments or rules being violated
Clerical orders
Orders given by religious authorities
Combative perjurers
People who lie or deceive in combat
Convinced in their right
Firm belief in their righteousness
Commandments
Repeated reference to the commandments
Eternal tenacity
Enduring persistence in following these commandments
Abusing obedience
Exploitation of obedience, possibly for harmful purposes
Unreal motive to kill !
Unreal or unjustifiable reasons for killing
