Amebix - Spoils Of Victory Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Look to the north, look to the east, look to the west and south
  • On all horizons storm clouds loom and roll across the sky
  • The river bursts its banks and vomits soil into the mouth
  • As thunder breaks the silence, a young child cries!
  • Between the night and the days first light the leaders made a pact
  • To raise the rotting corpse of war and set the wheels in motion
  • The stage a heaving battlefield would support the final act
  • While the authors hide in sattelites or forts beneath the ocean
  • And in this play We're cast as fools
  • To blindly play By others' rules
  • Now the dust has settled and the stench completely clear
  • Then return the victors to claim their wretched crown
  • But from the fleshheaps of the slain, there comes no cheer
  • Their game is over, the chips are down
  • You arrived like a breath from the angel of death
  • Famine, disease and a life on your knees, guaranteed
  • When you put them in power
