1. War
2. In Ourselves We Trust
3. Disorder of Battle
4. Ethnic Cleansing
5. Diseased Infected Earth
1. War
More death
No regrets
More lies
No one forgets
Life has no meaning
In this game that they play
We have no voices
But there's so much to say
Struggle for power
War
Personal gains
War
Political talk
War
For no reason at all
War
"Why can't all fighting and bloodshed stop?
Innocent people are suffering
My husband and two children have been killed in this war
And now I am all alone"
Blinded by heritage
War
Destined for nowhere
War
Blood for blood
War
For no reason at all
War
2. In Ourselves We Trust
God is all you need, they say
Not money, lust or greed
But how can I believe
In something I've never seen
Roman Catholic
Priests we trust
Thank God for little boys
But they are being raped
Just to cure their erotic joy
Evangelists across the states
Are making elders poor
Hungry sick and penniless
Just to get to heaven's door
We are being taught
Religion is the only way
That may be true to you
Believe in yourself
What can you do?
On your knees and prey
For he is watching
Your sins confess
The Arabs and Muslims
Are fighting in Lebanon
They are God's people
Soon there will be none
It's time for all you people
To start thinking for yourselves
The mind is a terrible thing to waste
Put that book back on the shelf
3. Disorder of Battle
Disorder
Chaos
This age shall perish
Blackened have the skies turned
Hollow screams
Echo with pain
Lessons this world
Never learned
Disorder
Chaos
This age shall perish
Praise to the world spoken in anger
Festive pagans chant forbidden
Reasons why I can't try their senseless lies
Why I've summoned to hear their cries
Is there hope amid the ruins?
Is there hope for the ruins?
Where this conflict dwells
Will these shadows disappear?
In the lands I once knew
Deprived of human spirit
Torn by confusion
Losing my mind to war
Will tears promise my vision?
4. Ethnic Cleansing
Endless
Suffering
Ethnic
Cleansing
Murdered children
Fallen cities
Absolute destruction
Eviscerated bodies
Raping
Destroying
Hatred
Killing
Bullets flying
Through the air
To destroy
An entire race
Both sides killing
Killing each other
They are related
Common brothers
5. Diseased Infected Earth
A world full of hunger
Peace unknown
Is this what we want?
Diseased infected earth
Hatred spawns violence
Sacrilegious traits
Bred among our children
Diseased infected earth
Twisted
Beyond
Human
Reality
Man's own existence
Technical brilliance
Is this what we want?
Diseased infected earth
