Gwar

Gwar - War Is All We Know lyrics

rate me

They came from the sun

From the east, from the west all around

So fate's die is cast

They marshaled their forces and found us at last

So it's come to this

The child is the destroyer

The young god comes to slay

War

Son kill the father

For blackness is all that i crave

Shells explode across my hide

Take me death, i am your slave

For i don't have soul

And i don't have a heart

Come then and face me

But first you must suffer my wrath

Hatred of all things alive

War is all we know

They say war is a last resort

For me it's the only way

I have tried reading their poetry

It suits me better to slay

All that i touch seems to break in my hands

Then it just bursts into flames

The piteous pleadings as innocents die

Only an odor remains

So burn the bitter butter

Prepare the murder machines

Bring me my scabbard, my halberd, my hauberk

Fetch me my enchanted greaves

My walls they are melting

The drugs they aren't helping

Is it time for the old gods to die?

To arms is the only cry

Hatred of all things alive

War is all we know

The humans must feast on their gods

We know it fucking blows

Hatred is a seed that's easy to sow

Buckets of blood will help it to grow

And raised on high, the fetid throne

Death is fate's master, he sits alone

They say war is all we know

If only that were true

No matter how i work my schedule

There's always other things that i do

But excuse me now, there's a tank at the door

And that slave's head just rolled cross the floor

He tries to say something and that something is puke

Right about then the pigs set off a nuke

War is all we know

Hatred

When i said i loved war, i lied

It fucking sucks on the losing side

And speaking of which, my face is on fire

A lightning withdrawl, we quickly retire

A flury of carnage, my brainpan is nicked

To my unending shame, my ass just got kicked

And as the shells fall in a relentless hail

The fortress was gutted and we had to bail
