about

Militant religious zealots bent on killing. Not usually the stuff of rock and roll. We give it a shot here...

lyrics

Here on Earth-what’s after-we wonder
Some so sure-so willing-no wonder-nothing to choose

Burning crosses-falling towers-brought to you by those who were so certain
that they’d go to heaven

Do you believe that something can unify despite the difference between our ways?
Or do you think we’re doomed to fail each time
So many wanting the end of days

Endless cycles of reprisals-we’re here to live-not to survive

Oh the ecstasy of those who push their ideologies
Our histories can serve us well-they are a cautionary tale...

On your t.v. screen, you see the pundits-how they intrigue you
And always they’re so firm with their diplomas, their medals-and they look so sure

Schooled in hate-hate to love-bullets fly when push comes to shove

Imagine a child’s mind filled up with poison and thoughts arcane
They tell him God believes he’s a better kind
With no restrictions on taking aim

Oh the majesty of those who push their ideologies
Our histories can serve us well-they are a cautionary tale...

When the lunatic fringe are preaching to the choir
All will fall on deaf ears like mine

Oh the ecstasy...
