They took you out, into a war Off infinite meaninglessness More people fall, the anger grows It's fuel on the fire This growing flame of religious hate Who has the right god, right rules The more you're set on your beliefs The sooner Satan shows A lifeless burning desert Landmines and cluster bombs Try to prevent oppression Your seen as Satans sons You try to help the locals out Protect them, keep them safe But the people that you try to protect They loathe you all the same While mothers cry, and scream for help Their sons and husbands try to kill Impossible to do your job You're working against their will A lifeless burning desert Landmines and cluster bombs Try to prevent oppression Your seen as Satans sons They took you out, into a war Off infinite meaninglessness You realize this can't be stopped By guns and heavy armor Your comrades fall, from day to day Fresh meat just keeps arriving Impossible to win a war That's thwarted from within The personification of violence, torture, hate An excuse to do to men, what shouldn't be done
