Break Those Bones Whose Sinews Gave It Motion Lyrics
Tremors, reverberating; frequency of doom.
How strongly the violent thoughts of vengeance echo.
Setting in motion the strings of hate.
Shudder.
Vibrate.
This is the soundtrack to our hostility,
to our malicious intent,
to the pointless grudge forever held.
The callow dream, the dismal wish to harm.
Animate now, the twisted sounds of our disdain, our rage.
The notations to our contempt to unforgiveness and loathing.
A sonic declaration of spite and resentment,
its resonance grinding to dust our souls.
The twine of revenge tightly strung,
its subharmonics, the undoing of all.
So enticing.
The retaliation - chords of man.
The all-deafening oscillation of the damned.
Let forth the hateful, the murderous.
Let their malignant prayers resound.
The reverbant odious request.
The wish of death abound.

This song title is an excerpt from a quote by philosopher, physician, organist, and 1952 Nobel Peace Prize winner Albert Schweitzer:
"Revenge... is like a rolling stone, which, when a man hath forced up a hill, will return upon him with a greater violence, and break those bones whose sinews gave it motion."
@Fadefury The quote is attributed to Albert Schweitzer, but Schweitzer was actually quoting 17th century British clergyman Jeremy Taylor.
