Lyrics BattleLust - Gwar

BattleLust

So!
(Ohh…)
So!
As I gaze through the mist at the approaching host
My hand finds the hilt of my sword
Soon they are sundered, their bodies we roast
Their leader is hacked, mauled and
Gored
Battle-lust takes me
Demon be damned
No way to slake me
Die by my hand
Die!
(Die, die, die…)
Sternums are cloven and skulls they are split
They then are heaped up in piles
Monarch of murder, the crown seems to fit
Suffering brings only
Smiles
Battle-lust takes me
Demon be damned
No way to slake me
Die by my hand
Die!
Whirling and hacking, I’m bathing my blade
Mutated myrmidon of rage
The howling vortex of the hatred I’ve made
The enemy is still miles away
Addicted to war-lust, I can’t be controlled
The burning blood soon chokes the pyre
Slaughter with frenzy, must eat their souls
Don’t even pause to perspire
Well, maybe a little bit
Let slip the dogs of war!
(Ohh…)
So!
The foe was fanatic, the battle well fought
I split another rib cage, the blood is black and hot
Volleys rain, bodies drop
Lungs collapse
Sinews
Pop
Is good, ja!
Battle-lust takes me
Thrive on your pain
Abattoirs churning
Die in my name
Die!
My friend the buzzard, he follows my toils
My friend the rat, he grows fat from my spoils
My friend the maggot, he spawns in your brain
My friend or enemy, all shall die in pain
All shall die in pain!
Lust!
