lyrics

Your god gave us dead earth,
sorrow turned into depravity,
bowing before idols,
hoping for eternity.

Wasting human lives
for any bliss or any transcendence.
Solidarity-
highest good of our century?

Same nonsense in a different time,
an other name but the same crimes.

Believers of the one true god,
burying their kin in unmarked holes.

Civilian's tears and blood are shed,
the goal is peace, the price is death.

Benevolence through bombs and knives,
the zealot with his empty eyes.

You filthy maggot,
you're spineless,
gape into paradise.
You're on your knees,
praying for devine delight.

Prevent unfolding,
it's forbidden
because of written lies.

If there's a god, he will smite us all.

Belief the savior for personal failure.
You're unable to live on your own,
not succesful, society excludes you,
grab your gun and the scripture.

The spirit of charity rides a red horse,
he's followed by hunger, plague and death.
Every of your idols belongs to them.
Craving for human sacrifice.

You'll bow and scream if divinity exists.
The lord's your strength and shield?
He shall be the rock that shatters your limbs
when he questions your belief.

Terrorize, crucify, missionize and sodomize.
Global war, inquisition, genocide and jihad.

Your god gave us dead earth,
sorrow turned into depravity,
bowing before idols,
hoping for eternity.

Wasting human lives
for any bliss or any transcendence.
Solidarity-
highest good of our century?

Same nonsense in a different time,
an other name but the same crimes.

Believers of the one true god,
burying their kin in unmarked holes.

Civilian's tears and blood are shed,
the goal is peace, the price is death.

Benevolence through bombs and knives,
the zealot with his empty eyes.
