Conquistadores |
At dawn he rides, the fleet sets sail, the tanks will roll, when Mars screams |
Across the world, our children wake, abandoned offspring, writhing there |
Choked by the hidden hand of God |
The swansong is on his lips, an albatross hangs from his red neck |
The doves are dead, the hawks are free, to propagate the burdens of empire |
What eyes have seen the world |
From well-worn knees |
Where corpses lay at soldier’s feet |
Conquistadores-God Speed! |
The Prophet and the angel |
Inside his oval lair |
She whispers to his empty head |
«Conquistador…war is peace» |
As infidels in Eden’s garden… we'll tear out the serpent’s eyes |
«A class filth infested, the heathen of the Holy Land |
We’ll trample, stomp, and segregate them |
Their God is dead-infected, they’re rats within our shrines |
Conquistador… why would I die?» |
Have another drink of wine |
Toast it to the terrorist |
You’re brother in each other’s arms |
Doppelgangers in distress |
The clash of the fools, he arrives |
Blinded and faith-martyred |
Cleansed and reborn |
As the suicide crusader with the passion of Christ armed |
In the shadow of the crescent moon |
The crucifix shines in its petrol graveyard |
In what God’s name shall they rule? |
The Cowboy and Caliphate in love with each other |
