Scarlet Phantom - Apotheosis of War

On the chest of slayer the mark of peace I see
In my judgement it's the greatest one hypocrisy
It is not God who kills children. Not fate and destiny
It's us. It is only us!

People try to slay one another from the dim and distant past
And today we finally got the might enough to complete the task
'Oneday this war's gonna end' - this war is gonna end
When you'll see as missiles fly and we all turn to dust

Hate the neighbour, hate the foreigner, hate everyone as you hate yourself!
Kill the neighbour, kill the foreigner, kill everyone as you kill yourself!

An absurd fortuity gifted the monkey with ability to think and create
But ugly human mind invented to it only one grim function
It is to generate the most effective way
Of total suicide and self-destruction

Hate the neighbour, hate the foreigner, hate everyone as you hate yourself!
Kill the neighbour, kill the foreigner, kill everyone as you kill yourself!

On the chest of slayer the mark of peace I see
In my judgement it is the greatest one hypocrisy
It is not God who kills the children. Not fate and destiny.
It's us. It is only us!

Business of the authorities costs thousands of human deaths
They feed you with sweet words of soliders pride and strength
They tell you that on the other side there're no people but enemies
I love the smell of napalm in the morning, it gives me the second breath

Carpet bombings, millions of buried corpses on fields of death
Slavery in GULAGs, burning people in concentration camps
Roads paved with the bones and walls painted gore
It is the apotheosis of war!
