grand deception
Disguised as god's redemption
Forcefed delusions of grandeur
Calling out for

willing sacrifice
Of a nameless enemy
Necessary losses
Fulfill the bloodlust fantasy

willing sacrifice
Of a nameless enemy
Necessary losses
Fulfill the bloodlust fantasy

See through this facade
Of retribution

This machine
Is marching to the killing rhythm
Spilling blood in vain
Subdues the vengeful masses
Spilling blood in vain
Subdues the vengeful masses

So put your blinders on
Replace your conscience with a flag
So you can forget
 [bad word] thicker than blood
