psychosis (metal) - the soon dead lyrics

the soon dead lyrics
[verse 1]
as the wheels hit the dirt
i feel the desert rise around me
deployed again into the mouth of war
but who am i defending?
bullets tear the air
my fallen brothers paint the sand red
life seen in seconds, never years
how many moments until i’m dead?

[pre+chorus]
i hope you’ll never realize
or taste the terror i taste
i’m told my soul belongs to god
but my body’s owned by the state

[chorus]
child of war
what am i fighting for?
the line is “freedom”
yet i’vе never seen it
only blood
the sand, thе mud
the face of death
and the eyes to see it
[verse 2]
we move in packs like rabid dogs
through narrow streets in search of hostiles
innocent and guilty look the same
they hide their knives, beware of their smiles
behind an unlocked door
a starving child encased in c+4
for her, the screaming ends
for me, the screaming is a dead roar

[pre+chorus]
i hope you’ll never see that fear
inside the eyes of the soon dead
i hope you’re sleeping safe tonight
your children tucked in their beds

[chorus]
child of war
what are they dying for?
is it for god?
because i’ve never seen him
only the wrath
the plagues, the bloodbath
the terror, the threats
and the death of the martyrs
[post+chorus]
the martyr, the martyr

[solo: kragen]

[bridge]
i saw the head doctor today
i lied and said, “i feel great”
no longer fit to live with you
i’ll stay right here, a symbol of your hate

[pre+chorus]
i hope you’ll never realize
or know the thrill of almost dying
i hope you’ll shed a tear for me
no longer capable of crying

[chorus 1]
child of war
what am i fighting for?
i fight for pleasure, fun
and the rush of addiction
no chance
for penance
i’m unashamed
i want no absolution
[chorus 2]
child of war
what are they dying for?
is it for god?
because i’ve never seen him
only the wrath
the plagues, the bloodbath
the terror, the threats
and the death of the martyrs
