Brother will kill brother
|
Spilling blood across the land.
|
Killing for religion
|
It's something I don't understand.
|
|
Fools like me, who cross the sea
|
And come to foreign lands
|
Ask the sheep for their beliefs
|
Do you kill on God's command?
|
|
A country that's divided
|
Surely will not stand.
|
My past erased, no more disgrace
|
No foolish naive stand.
|
|
The end is near, it's crystal clear
|
Part of the master plan,
|
Don't look now to Israel
|
It might be your homeland.
|
|
Holy wars!
|
|
[Solo - Friedman]
|
|
Upon my podium, as the know-it-all scholar,
|
Down in my seat of judgement, gavels bang uphold the law.
|
Up on my soapbox, a leader out to change the world,
|
Down in my pulpit as the holier-than-thou
|
could-be messenger of God.
|
|
Wage the war on organized crime
|
Sneak attacks, rapel down the rocks
|
Behind the lines.
|
Some people risk to employ me,
|
Some people live to destroy me.
|
Either way they die.
|
They die.
|

|
|
They killed my wife and my baby,
|
With hopes to enslave me
|
First mistake... last mistake
|
Paid by the alliance, to slay all the giants
|
Next mistake... no more mistakes!
|

|
|
Fill the cracks in, with judicial granite
|
Because I don't say it,
|
don't mean I ain't thinkin' it.
|
Next thing you know, they'll take my thoughts away.
|
I know what I said, now I must scream
|
by the overdose
|
and the lack of mercy killings.
|
Mercy killings
|
Mercy killings
|
Killings!!
|
Killings!!
|
Killings!!
|
|
Next thing you know
|
they'll take my thoughts away!
