Abu Ghraib - In Violent Glory Lyrics

Enshrined in a blind devotion
Bloodlust empowers me
Leading down to self destruction

Body imbued with fervor
Fueling vile tendencies
Implanting egotistic lies

Forgive our disgrace
We know not what we do
Servants of death
Obsolete conscience

Easily misled by certainty
Making the ultimate sacrifice
"Justified" martyrdom

In time you will learn to enjoy the hostility
Rendering all inhospitable and desecrated
Yet to think that in irony
You will not live to see the Pyrrhic victory
Cyclical patterns coiling our own arrogance

"As ancestors before us
And generations to come:
We shall return to dust."
Silently fighting off all of my hesitation
To question this grand fantasy
Dissidence, apostasy
Sings a familiar refrain as I remember

"Paradise beckons above
As glory awaits
Cut off your strings
Puppets of god!
Seek reality..."

Slowly my sanity bends
Nerves uncontrollably numb
The mind gives in
And betrays the body
As it repeats the mantra

"Paradise beckons above
As glory awaits
Cut off your strings
Puppets of god!
Seek reality..."

Children of perdition
Damned to servitude
Outcast to the unknown
Wastelands become our tombs
Forgive our disgrace
We know not what we do
Servants of death
Obsolete consciousness

Nothing more than fodder bred for murder for a pointless cause
Yet still we're giving in to become the holy ultimate sacrifice
