lyrics

my friend and i were playing in the city street
kicking around my soccer ball with our dirty feet
in spite of everything we were having fun
with smiles on our faces, we looked up at the sun
and then we saw it falling from the sky
and then we saw the flash

terrorism
constant violence
innocent lives
coldly discarded
worthless battles
unjust aggression
retribution
praised as valor

war and rumors of war
nation will rise against nation
famine and earthquake destroy
these are the pangs of armageddon
war and rumors of war
nation will rise against nation
brothers, do not be alarmed
these are the pangs of armageddon's birth

patriots carry their flag
planting it on foreign soil
"drop the bombs on these subhumans
we need some cheaper oil"
they blacken their souls
in search of black gold

God forgive the american empire
