POW

Freeze and starve to death
In forced labour camps
Neither numbers nor names
Merely left to die
Bargaining chip
Prisoner exchange deal
Chorus
War is hell, your life is on the edge of a knife
Hung on metal hooks
Or beaten with clubs
Layers of human waste
Left on the floor
Systematic torture
Inflicted in wartime
Chorus
War is hell, your life is on the edge of a knife
War is hell, constant and violent struggle to survive
Inhuman and deadly conditions
Infected with diseases
Vivisection of prisoners
Organ removal on live subjects
Freeze and starve to death
In forced labour camps
Neither numbers nor names
Merely left to die
Bargaining chip
Prisoner exchange deal
Chorus
War is hell, your life is on the edge of a knife
War is hell, constant and violent struggle to survive

Deification Of Men
03:42
|
|
||
Harassments, humiliations
Under the guise of religion
They claim divine favor for themselves
Manipulation and harm inflicted
Using doctrines of one's religion
Chorus
Religious violence and extremism
Inflicting pain and the shedding of blood
Religious violence and extremism
Forcible interference with personal freedom
Widespread imprisonment and mass murder
Their legacy is genocidal in nature
Submission to spiritual authority
Unnatural domination, deprivation of sustenance
Misuse and abuse of authority by church
Chorus
Religious violence and extremism
Inflicting pain and the shedding of blood
Religious violence and extremism
Forcible interference with personal freedom
Religious enslavement, witchcraft or sorcery
Indoctrination of numerous improper fears and phobias
Harassments, humiliations
Under the guise of religion
They claim divine favor for themselves
Manipulation and harm inflicted
Using doctrines of one's religion
Chorus
Religious violence and extremism
Inflicting pain and the shedding of blood
Religious violence and extremism
Forcible interference with personal freedom

Target My Enemies
03:29
|
|
||
Achieve immortality
In the afterlife
For my sacrifice
Through martyrdom
The otherwise forbidden
Act of suicide
I attain a holy status
Chorus
I seek revenge
And annihilate the world
I'm willing to die
To fullfill my cause
The whole world
Against my needs
Combine these feelings
With political tyranny
My enemies
Savage invaders
Cowardly tyrants
Make me feel embattled
Chorus
I seek revenge
And annihilate the world
I'm willing to die
To fullfill my cause
I've spread terror
And awe through the crowds
Traumatized survivors
Wailing at the sky
My duffel bag
With explosives and iron shrapnel
A simple click
In my trigger device
I’ve left scores
Of empty slippers
Among pools
Of creeping blood
The resulting blast
Ripped their solemn rite
To bloody tatters
Chorus
I seek revenge
And annihilate the world
I'm willing to die
To fullfill my cause

Endless War

Take a vow and receive the indulgence
Now you are forgiven of your sins
Demonstrate devotion to the fucking god
Semitic blood has started to spill
Chorus
The cloth cross
A symbol of death
Half a million
Felt the wrath of god
Manifestation of the evils of the papacy
Barbarian cultures driven by fanaticism
High ideals were besmirched
By cruelty and greed
Chorus
The cloth cross
A symbol of death
Half a million
Felt the wrath of god
Endless wars, fights and battles through the centuries
A path of gore, an act of intolerance in the name of god
You must be free from the brutal and humiliating condition
Persecution and massacre aimed by christendom
Take a vow and receive the indulgence
Now you are forgiven of your sins
Demonstrate devotion to the fucking god
Semitic blood has started to spill
Chorus
The cloth cross
A symbol of death
Half a million
Felt the wrath of god

Induced Insanity
03:32
|
|
||
Derangement, twisted mind is wasting away
Mental decay has darkened disaffected ones
Madness, in the name of one god
Who is just handling with your weak mind
Absurdity, the full force of improvidence
And yet, they think they are possessing the thuth
Years and years of foolishness
Killing and killing and killing again
Religion is induced insanity
Delusion in the entire race
Alienation exacerbated by their blind faith
Stupidity, the common sense
Your god is mischievous
Desire is what draws you to the infernal pain
Pleasure in taking others' life
The silliness of your mind
Believing your have free will
Derangement, twisted mind is wasting away
Mental decay has darkened disaffected ones
Madness, in the name of one god
Who is just handling with your weak mind

Inter-Country Conflicts
04:19
|
|
||
Into a frenzied rage
Blaming the killings
Orgy of bloodletting
Religious affiliation
Chorus
Retaliation with force
Inter-country conflicts
Escalate into a massacre
Inter-country conflicts
Vicious spiral of violence
Feared retribution
An utterly sectarian struggle
Hostility to the enemy
Chorus
Retaliation with force
Inter-country conflicts
Escalate into a massacre
Inter-country conflicts
Unleashed beast
Sole control
Conquer all
At any cost
Chorus
Retaliation with force
Inter-country conflicts
Escalate into a massacre
Inter-country conflicts

Complete unwillingness to compromise
Routine acceptance of the desired ends
Justification for unsavoury means
Devaluation of events in this world
Chorus
Manifestations of their militancy
Dehumanization of those not fit their view
Sense of knowing an ultimate meaning
The mind of the religious extremists
To assume the role of god’s hit man
Defending the deity and his representatives
Engage in a life of structured ritual
The life has meaning beyond the grave
Chorus
Manifestations of their militancy
Dehumanization of those not fit their view
Sense of knowing an ultimate meaning
The mind of the religious extremists

Iconoclasm Disturbance
03:09
|
|
||
Complex diplomatic negotiations
And agreements of peace
Were followed by renewed
Conflict and power struggles
Corruption among the clergy
Showed the need for reform
And opposite ideas made
Impressions of such hope
Chorus
Dissident religious activities
Iconoclasm disturbance
Establishment of independent
Military structures
Diplomatic contacts
With foreign powers
And openly revolting
Against central authorities
Rebellion of those
Revolted against church
Chorus
Dissident religious activities
Iconoclasm disturbance
Dissident religious activities
Iconoclasm disturbance
Anticlerical disposition
Depicted immorality among the priesthood
Salvation by grace through faith
Unpleasant alternative among the masses

Boundaries Of The Truth
04:20
|
|

Game of religion is rigged
No one wants to admit it
Boundaries of the privileged inner court
Heaven resides within
Will you ever discover the immutable truth
