SKEPTIX

I´ve seen it all before

Fighting death and war

Listening to the screaming

Watching all the violence

I´ve been screaming all day

And I´ve been screaming all night

And i´m losing control of myself

Cause I´ve been standing in these

violent streets so long

I´m losing all control of the sense

of right and wrong

The coppers try to take it all away

Violent street it is the only fucking way

It is got to happen someday

They´ll move us all away

A dead city all around

A fucking ghost town

Our armies destroyed and defeated

The only certainly of war is heath

Fight to the last man

Searing pain, take your last breath

Why why why do they die

Why do they live at all

You who survive the fighting

Who have escaped from hell

Don´t cangratulate youselves

The real heroes are those who fell

Hungry, demoralised and nauseated

By the horrors you have seen

Giving an order in which is stated

Fight to the last man

Our lads are sailing to a war

Wondering if they´ll ever come back

Fighting and dying on a distant shore

Wive´s crying for the husbands they lack

Our ships are sailing to a war

One which came from a fucking mistake

But this war´s different than before

We had a warning to avoid this war

The British people cheer their men

But when the bombs begin to fly

They´ll scream and start to think again

And ask why their men have to die

War can kill and war can maim

But to same people, war´s a game

Now your body aches with pain

But you´re just another carpse sithout a name

Evetything you do, everything they say

Someone´s got to listen, someone´s got to obey

They fill you up of bullshit you see things

through their eyes

When all you´re seeing really are a pack

of fucking lies

A movement for the youth

We´ll do things as o group

You´ll listen and obey

To what we´ve got to say

Got no choice on a YOP

Got no choice on the TV screen

Got no choice on the radio

Got no choice in the life we lead

Social democracy political discussion

What do people thing, who do they thing

they´re pushing

You read it in the papers you hear it in the news

The whole population has turned against the screws

They´ve got enough trouble with petrol bombs

Without some triator stealing their arms

Soldiers are paid to uphold the law

Triator you supply to opposition in the war

Triator did you do it for the pay

Triator it´ll kill you same day

triator your paid to keep the law

Triator your prologing this war

Triator broke in at the dead of night

Not knowing if what he is doing is wrong or right

he is a triator in the IRA´s pay

Hope he doesn´t live to see another dy

Whether you gave or whether they bought

the gun you stole is killing you sort

Death and destruction is all around

Killing soldiers five per pound

I´ve worked most of my life

I gained nothing from the dole

But i kept my point of view

I never wanted nothing from you

You fill people full of shit

To get your votes for you

I don´t want you political scene

I´ve got better things to do

Born to lose I´ve got the right to choose, right to choose

You only show people the good side of you

You never show them the bad

The things you do for the public

Are the things you really want yourself

Your lies, deceits and you cheats

But as soon as we´ve voted for you

We´re just some cunts who´ve got to pay

When you are told several times a day

You are filth and you´ll have to pay

They drill your finger nails until they bleed

You learn to accept the shit they feed

this is the legion of the damned

Where death and destruction are at hand

this is the legion of the damned

not knowing where the hell we stand

This is the legion of the damned

Few survivors of this war

nothing can shock or disgust us anymore

the European war where regiments died

All because the leaders lied

The war in ukraine was a bitter one

Where Cossacks fought their own race and creed

Where the war was fought memories linger on

But no one cares this war is won
