War Is All We Know Songtext / Lyric

They came from the sun

From the east from the west all around

And so fate's die is cast

They marshalled their forces and foundus 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 a 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 that war is a last resort

For me it's the only way

I have tried reading them 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 reamains



So burn the bitter butter

Break out our murder machines

Bring me my scabbard my halber, my hauberk

Fetch me my enchanted greaves



My walls they are melting

The drugs they aren't helping

It is the 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 all alone



(All alone, all alone, all alone, all alone)



The 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 withdraw, 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



Hatred of all things alive

War is all we know

The humans must feast on thier Gods

We know it fucking blows



Hatred of all things alive

War is all we know

The humans must feast on their Gods

War is all, war is all, war is all we know
