The human condition
Of misery and pain
Contribute to a lexicon
Of mortal remains

Legacies of civilizations
Unseen, unheard…
So, of what importance is
Say, a new song?

Fill-in-the-blanks in the spaces of time
Create a reality with the power of the mind
Kill a hundred people, maim a thousand more
For beliefs that you're willing to die for

The human condition
Of misery and pain
Contribute to a lexicon
Of mortal remains

Legacies of civilizations
Unseen, unheard
Nothing important save the absurd

The suffering masses, blame it on their lord
For any place to put the shame - create a mental Mordor
Kill all the Christians, the Muslims, the Jews
Damn into eternity the complacent Hindus

Creations of tact and a one-time mastery
Waste all the men around, and then you'll be free

The human condition
Of misery and pain
Contribute to a lexicon
Of mortal remains

Legacies of civilizations
Unseen, unheard
Nothing important save the absurd

Kill a hundred people, maim a thousand more
For all the beliefs that you're willing to die for
Waste them away, kill them all
And then you'll be master, then you'll be free

For all of eternity, free, bloody and free.
