Lyrics
(Lyrics: hanneman; music: hanneman)
Time melts away in this living inferno Trapped by a cause that I once understood Feeling a sickness building inside of me Who will I really have to answer to
March on through the rivers of red Souls drift, they fill the air Forced to fight, behind The crooked cross
Do only what is expected of me With no emotions my feelings suppressed Blind obedience carries me through it all Conscience a word I learned to forget
March on through the rivers of red Flesh burns, it fills the air. [sings: souls drift, they fill...] Forced to fight, behind The crooked cross
Lead: hanneman, king King, hanneman
Time melts away in this living inferno Trapped by a cause that I once understood Blind obedience carries me through it all Do only what is expected of me
March on through the rivers of red Souls drift, they fill the air Forced to fight, behind The crooked cross
"Mandatory suicide" (Lyrics:araya; music: hanneman, king)
Murder at your every foot step A child's toy sudden death Sniper blazes you thru your knees Falling down can you feel the heat Burn!
Ambushed by the spray of lead Count the bullet holes in your head Offspring sent out to cry Living mandatory suicide Suicide. [x 4]
Lead: hanneman
Holes burn deep in your chest Raked by machine gun fire Screaming soul sent out to die Living mandatory suicide Suicide. [x 4]
Lead: hanneman
[Spoken:] Lying, dying, screaming in pain Begging, pleading, bullets drop like rain Mines explode, pain sheers through your brain Radical amputation, this is insane
Fly swatter stakes drive through your chest Spikes impale you as you're forced off the crest Soldier of misfortune Hunting with bated breath
A vile smell, like tasting death Dead bodies, dying and wounded Litter the city streets Shattered glass, bits of clothing and human deceit Dying [in] terror Blood's cheap, it's everywhere Mandatory suicide, massacre on the front line
