Curtain's up for this lurid age
|
||
|
Clear the ring for oppression and greed
|
||
|
Welcome to this wasteland
|
||
|
Of blight and havoc
|
||
|
Once known as my home
|
||
|
|
||
|
Deleting fulfilled
|
||
|
Erasing procedure done
|
||
|
Cleansing complete
|
||
|
It's done, my friend
|
||
|
It's over and done
|
||
|
|
||
|
There was nothing left
|
||
|
But the smell of salassian blood
|
||
|
Nil and nothing left
|
||
|
But the braying void in our homes
|
||
|
|
||
|
I never forgot the eyes of the kids
|
||
|
Wrested from their moms
|
||
|
To be sold into slavery
|
||
|
I still can hear
|
||
|
The cries of the raped
|
||
|
And the bellow of the flames
|
||
|
The hymn of absurd death
|
||
|
|
||
|
Heed the chronicles
|
||
|
Of lucrative genocide
|
||
|
The annals of effaced tribes
|
||
|
Pages written in blood
|
||
|
|
||
|
Ave Caesar Augustus
|
||
|
It's done, my friend
|
||
|
It's over and done
