Now they crumble the kingdom
Tied their hands to their feet
Burned, bereft of forgiveness
City a smoldering heap.
From ancient ages to modern times
These untold atrocities have amassed
Permeating the ground, the soil soaks their blood.
Nevertheless, this headlong struggle for supremacy
Persists throughout our violent history.
So we sing ourselves to sleep
When the strong overtake the weak
The cities burn, the bridges bend
Now we lay our heads to rest
So we sing ourselves to sleep
When the strong overtake the weak
The cities burn, the bridges bend
Now we lay our heads to rest.
Now, they crumble the kingdom
Tied their hands to their feet
Burned, bereft of forgiveness
City, a smoldering heap.
Powers of new blood
Now play god with maniacal ease
They shall enslave all
Nevertheless, this headlong struggle for supremacy
Persists throughout our violent history.
Powers unite
Joining to extinguish the fight
Pacifying, undermining
Some survive
Others shall be cast alight
Into a burning pit of fire
Immolate
A creed now disintegrates
Never to be seen again
Caged, confined
Opposition brutalized
By an unfamiliar dogma
Petrified
As the wrong now becomes the right
Persecution of a people
Some survive
Others shall be cast alight
Into a burning pit of fire.
Some survive
Others shall be cast alight
Into a burning pit of fire
Some survive
Others shall be cast alight
Into a burning pit of fire.
Isolated
Wallowing in the shame
No resurgence
Preparations
For the next war begin
This cannot be escaped.
The world holds its breath awaiting
Death.
Victorious, now the victor sings
And rewrites the cold facts of history
To present their greatness to their offspring
This process cycles continuously.
