Gods Of War Lyrics
When I was younger I thought
that to kill, or be killed was a thing
to be proud of
Victim of change, prisoner of hope,
hanged by the neck on the end of a rope
I don't know...
I don't care...
Oh, one of the damned
Oh, part of the plan
Cry oh, oh, oh, the gods of war
They howl and cry for more
Cry oh, oh, oh, the gods of war
They howl and cry for more
Now taking both sides at a time, on the front line
You can join in the fear
Share in the bloodshed
Investing your money in guns, the infinite fun
of the warlord you saved
From the rusty grave
Oh, one of the damned
Oh, part of the plan
Cry oh, oh, oh, the gods of war
They howl and cry for more
Cry oh, oh, oh, the gods of war
They howl and cry for more
Oh, one of the damned
Oh, part of the plan
Cry oh, oh, oh, the gods of war
They howl and cry for more
Cry oh, oh, oh, the gods of war
They howl and cry for more
that to kill, or be killed was a thing
to be proud of
Victim of change, prisoner of hope,
hanged by the neck on the end of a rope
I don't know...
I don't care...
Oh, part of the plan
They howl and cry for more
Cry oh, oh, oh, the gods of war
They howl and cry for more
You can join in the fear
Share in the bloodshed
Investing your money in guns, the infinite fun
of the warlord you saved
From the rusty grave
Oh, part of the plan
They howl and cry for more
Cry oh, oh, oh, the gods of war
They howl and cry for more
Oh, part of the plan
They howl and cry for more
Cry oh, oh, oh, the gods of war
They howl and cry for more

I guess it's about someone who was born and bred to fight and die in battle, knowing victory of the kill as the only joy life has to offer and using religion to justify violence.
