Premonitions forebode
on these desert roads
Will another landmine explode?
Do I foresee,
An I.E.D.
And burns of the third degree?
Just another day
in this neverending fray
As daylight burns away
Drones race, across the open skies
Blood must be spilled when the bullets fly (2x)
Pray to your gods
Summon your masters
To save yourself
in the hereafter
Pray to your gods
Summon your masters
To save yourself
in the hereafter
Guerrilla confrontation
shells of fragmentation
needing no translation
Desolate land
Shifting sands
Hidden in their thousands
Nomadic domain
in this arid terrain
Yet the insurgency remains
Enemies within the populace
Faceless, remain anonymous (2x)
Staring into the desert night
as another mine ignites
No condemnation
from the population
Is it guilt by association?
The conflict extends
as it descends
Into a war that never ends

War is Our Religion

My comrades are my clergy, Propaganda is my sermon
Battlefield, our place of worship, our forces, forever determined
War is our religion
War is our re....
Zinc, lead, tungsten carbide and iron ore
Mined from deep below the earth, for the glory of war
War is our religion
War is our re...
Consecrated with the enemies blood, first a stream and then a flood
Send forth endless infantry divisions, war is our religion
War is our religion
War is our re....
Zinc, lead, tungsten carbide and iron ore
Mined from deep below the earth, for the glory of war
War is our religion
War is our re...
(Bridge: air raid siren build up)
And when the bombs are falling,
This is our higher calling
Barrage of exploding shrapnel
Frontline our church and chapel
And when the bullets fly
None shall dare to defy
Endless streams of blazing hot lead
A martyrs end for the dead
War is our religion
War is our re....
Zinc, lead, tungsten carbide and iron ore
Mined from deep below the earth, for the glory of war
War is our religion
War is our re...
Cover the earth with armour columns, blanket the sky with warplane formations
Sic vis bellum, para pacem*, War is our religion

Lost in the Red Snow
06:19
|

Ambushed in the forest
When gunfire drew near
Caught off guard I must confess
Their shots still ringing in my ears
Lost in a vast frozen wasteland of snow
The fate of my comrades, the lord only knows
A trial of survival I must undergo
Frostbite develops, it's forty below
We will......hunt you down
We will......hunt you down
An army of red that I must now out run
My crimes committed cannot be undone
Pursuers draw near, revenge they demand
I see them coming, there's blood on my hands
An icy grips, now surrounds
Depleting supplies, low on rounds
Wading through the dead, to escape the Reds
Ammo low in the panzershrek, a noose of ice around my neck!
Wading through the dead, to escape the Reds
Wading through the dead, to escape the Reds
We will......hunt you down
We will......hunt you down
As I traveled back through villages, I helped burn
My former prey awaited my return
Watching me with their empty,
yet all seeing eyes
Are they foretelling, my own demise?
3 long years of treacherous retreat
that I know I, cannot ever complete
All have perished in my platoon
My victims reassured,
that I'll be one of them soon
We will......hunt you down
We will......hunt you down
We will......hunt you down
We will......hunt you down
