Lyrics

[Verse 1] For whom the gun tolls For whom the prey weeps Bow before a war Call it religion Some wounds never heal Some tears never will Dry for the unkind Cry for mankind [Verse 2] Even the dead cry Their only comfort Kill your friend, I don't care Orchid kids, blinded stare Need to understand No need to forgive No truth, no sense Left to be followed [Bridge] Facing this unbearable fear Like meeting an old friend "Time to die, poor mates You made me what I am!" In this world of a million religions Everyone prays the same way "Your praying is in vain It'll all be over soon [Laughing]" Father help me Save me a place by your side "There is no God Our creed is but for ourselves, hehe Not a hero unless you die Our species eat the wounded ones" Drunk with the blood of your victims I do feel your pity-wanting pain Lust for fame, a deadly game "Run away with your impeccable kin!" [Interlude] Good wombs hath borne bad sons [Verse 4] Cursing, God, why? Falling for every lie Survivors' guilt In us forevermore Fifteen candles Redeemers of this world Dwell in hypocrisy How were we supposed to know?
