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

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

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 02:46
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

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

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

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
