lyrics

(Hey!) Warriors forged in the flame
Stories of orators writing the name
(Hey! Hey!) Choking the lame
Controlling remotely the goals of the game
(Hey!) Cannibal brain
Surrounded by jackals in furtive debate
(Hey! Hey!) Adrenaline chain
Sudden compulsion to self-immolate

The soldier and the slave
The coward and the cave
The bastard and the brave
The power and the plague
(Hey!) The solderer (Hey!) and the smith
(Hey!) The martyr (Hey!) and the myth
(Hey!) The bastard (Hey!) and the brave
(Hey!) The power (Hey!) and the plague
(Hey!)

Can you feel the high, does it let you forget
It starts from the mind and then it enters your head
I need to see you convulse to the beat of my heart
Pure chemical hate, this is the state of the art

Split, tear (riotCONTROL)
Turn, bend (riotCONTROL)
Strip, grind (riotCONTROL)
Split, tear (riotCONTROL)

Swallow your system decay
Signal division to separate, saturate
(Hey! Hey!) Barricade, selling your
Mettle to swine who would peddle your fate
(Hey!) Venom gets into the enemy
Various elements in the vicinity
Methylamphetamine, furious sound
Kill it with limited boots on the ground

The soldier and the slave
The coward and the cave
The bastard and the brave
The power and the plague
(Hey!) The solderer (Hey!) and the smith
(Hey!) The martyr (Hey!) and the myth
(Hey!) The bastard (Hey!) and the brave
(Hey!) The power (Hey!) and the plague

Can you feel the high, does it let you forget
It starts from the mind and then it enters your head
I need to see you convulse to the beat of my heart
Pure chemical hate, this is the state of the art

Split, tear (riotCONTROL)
Turn, bend (riotCONTROL)
Strip, grind (riotCONTROL)
Split, tear (riotCONTROL)
