1. Bitter Peace


Initiate blood purge

Coalition in massacre

Mechanized high tech

Whole sale death in effect

Mutually assured

Destruction will occur

Genocide revised

Same pain through diverse eyes


Can't stop the warring factions

Hostile from the start

Always war always

Ending bitter peace


Not the last third war

Blood spills for evermore

Patriot hard line

Lay siege till the end of time

No longer kill your brother

Just slaughter one another

Watch for the deadly other

This sibling is a fucker


Can't stop the warring factions


Global tension starts aggression

Peace breaks out then

breeds contempt unrest


(Lead: Hanneman/King)


Without a reason to fight

A time to kill

Sick lust for skeletal flesh

A taste for all decay

Enter the soldier blind

Stalking the faceless hunt

There is no conscience in this world

That can be reached for peace

Why face the human question

The need to hate

Dead stare through cynical eyes

A trust in only pain

Murder within the skin

Engrave the art of war

Become death's vile parade

March on embrace the violent mind


Can't stop the warring factions


Global tension starts aggression

Peace breaks out then

breeds contempt unrest

One cryptic reason for life murder
