3. Hive Mind (4:26)
Rejoice, rejoice, for you have all been called
To live and die in service of a greater cause
To offer up your lives like wheat before the unforgiving scythe
In holy martyrdom, a willing sacrifice
Keep the faith, and reap the harvest
But first you must be fruitful, breed and spread the gospel
And if they will not hear you, then they will learn to fear you
Indoctrinating the youth
Control the future, dictate the truth
Swarming like locusts we spread from the hive
Certain of purpose and single of mind
We are the chosen, children of the lord
Sworn to spread salvation...
Obey, obey, and all will be forgiven
In the act of your contrition you will be absolved
You shall be the vessel, from which we shall bring forth
A quiverfull of children born to inherit and conquer by faith or by force
Inheritors of our design
Messengers of mercy, arbiters of who is worthy
Armoured by belief
Ready and willing
All of us armed to the teeth
Swarming like locusts we spread from the hive
Certain of purpose and single of mind
We are the chosen, children of the lord
Sworn to spread salvation by the sermon or the sword
This is how it always happens, faith begets fanaticism
A viral strain of madness bordering on masochism
Conditioned to believe that...
We are the chosen, the favoured children
Glorious of purpose, both a blessing and a burden
Commanded to convert, and spread our creed across the earth
So blessed be the fruit, that the lord shall open
Every seed another soldier, every womb another weapon
And every honoured mother
Another martyr for the cause
To live and die in service of a greater cause
To offer up your lives like wheat before the unforgiving scythe
In holy martyrdom, a willing sacrifice
Keep the faith, and reap the harvest
But first you must be fruitful, breed and spread the gospel
And if they will not hear you, then they will learn to fear you
Indoctrinating the youth
Control the future, dictate the truth
Swarming like locusts we spread from the hive
Certain of purpose and single of mind
We are the chosen, children of the lord
Sworn to spread salvation...
Obey, obey, and all will be forgiven
In the act of your contrition you will be absolved
You shall be the vessel, from which we shall bring forth
A quiverfull of children born to inherit and conquer by faith or by force
Inheritors of our design
Messengers of mercy, arbiters of who is worthy
Armoured by belief
Ready and willing
All of us armed to the teeth
Swarming like locusts we spread from the hive
Certain of purpose and single of mind
We are the chosen, children of the lord
Sworn to spread salvation by the sermon or the sword
This is how it always happens, faith begets fanaticism
A viral strain of madness bordering on masochism
Conditioned to believe that...
We are the chosen, the favoured children
Glorious of purpose, both a blessing and a burden
Commanded to convert, and spread our creed across the earth
So blessed be the fruit, that the lord shall open
Every seed another soldier, every womb another weapon
And every honoured mother
Another martyr for the cause
