God's Prey Lyrics

Father who art in heaven, all hallowed by thy name
keep our fingers from the trigger, aimed & loaded in thy name
Forgive them, all these sinners, for they know not what they do
Born in life, as blind beginners trained to do your work for you

In the ever grieving city where the hard men never cry
People in the know here say that the flag of hate must always fly
Kids turn into killers here like bad beer turns back into piss
You will never have a nightmare that is ever quite like this

I should know, I should know

Easy targets in the school yard, young simple minds can't see the truth
Snared by a mask of glamour, they never ask for proof
Growing up amid the horrors, grown accustomed to the scene
Innocents make perfect killers, that's the way it's always been.

Minds are moulded into hatred without ever knowing why
Playgrounds filled with propaganda, which god waits for you to die?
Never question those who order, they have everything to gain
Do you duty as a rebel show no mercy for the sane.

I should know, I should know

Maybe I should know the reason why this war has raged 800 years
Maybe I should know the reason why these people live in constant fear.

Smash all borders, burn your flag, be set free
Smash all borders, burn your flag, be set free

Pick through the rubble of ages, all victims look the same
Resignation on their faces, pawns in a never ending game
Guilty parties free from all the blame, hide behind a screen of lies
They've forgotten real compassion, grown deaf to children's cries.

Gods' prey Gods' prey Gods' prey Gods' prey
Gods' prey Gods' prey Gods' prey Gods' prey
