Act III: Clinging by Bullets (Follow the Head)

from Radical Christianity (Expanded Edition) by Decimate Our Kind

/

lyrics

Seems like a lifetime
That was all wasted
How much time has passed by
With us living in these lies
How much have we missed
What have we become
To have fought against us
Each tries to kill the other
But that is no more
Our past matters not
For right here you're with me
Brother in arm and in hand
Our newfound purpose
A reason to live
To escape this hellhole
To get out of these caverns

We were enemies
We just didn't know
Didn't see connections
The string that tied together
Now we've seen it all
The bond that we share
For we've a common goal
That we'll achieve together

So let's run away
Let's escape this field
The killing can stop with
Us for we will want no more
The soulless can fight
For the bullshit they
Choose to be loyal to
Follow the head to your death

In this battlefield
Right next to the blood
Right besides all the death
Lying where we both were born
The hole in the stone
The crack in the roof
Explosion outside, seems
Like the gods want us to leave
For we shall return
Our home is in sight
The soldiers can fuck it
For our purpose realized
Is unstoppable
War can't bring it down
We'll enter those front doors
And death shall meet its demise

Where the fuck have I been these years
Hearing mindless chants with my ears
For an empire I somehow chose to serve
The logic line that apparently has no curve
But now I've opened my resistant eyes
The power of love takes me to the skies
For my brother has returned to my heart
We leave this war, it won't tear us apart
