Bitter Peace Lyrics

Slayer

Initiate blood purge
Coalition in massacre
Mechanized high tech
Whole sale death in effect
Mutually assured
Destruction will occur
Genocide revised
Same pain through diverse eyes
Cant stop the warring factions
Hostile from the start
Always war always
Ending bitter peace
Not the last third war
Blood spills for evermore
Patriot hard line
Lay siege till the end of time
No longer kill your brother
Just slaughter one another
Watch for the deadly other
This sibling is a fucker
Cant stop the warring factions
Global tension starts aggression
Peace breaks out then
Breeds contempt unrest
[lead: hanneman/king]
Without a reason to fight
A time to kill
Sick lust for skeletal flesh
A taste for all decay
Enter the solider blind
Stalking the faceless hunt
There is no conscience in this world
That can be reached for peace
Why face the human question
The need to hate
Dead stare though cynical eyes
A trust in only pain
Murder within the skin
Engrave the art of war
Become deaths vile parade
March on embrace the violent mind
Cant stop the warring factions
Global tension starts aggression
Peace breaks out then
Breeds contempt unrest
One cryptic reason for life murder
