Slayer — Bitter Peace

[Verse 1] Initiate blood purge Coalition in massacre Mechanized, high-tech Wholesale death in effect Mutually assured Destruction will occur Genocide revised Same pain through diverse eyes [Pre-Chorus] Can't stop the warring factions Can't stop the warring factions Can't stop the warring factions [Chorus 1] Hostile from the start Always war, always Ending bitter peace [Verse 2] Not the last third war Blood spills forevermore Patriot hard line Lay siege till the end of time [Bridge 1] No longer kill your brother Just slaughter one another Watch for the deadly other This sibling is a fucker [Pre-Chorus] Can't stop the warring factions Can't stop the warring factions [Chorus 2] Global tension starts aggression Peace breaks out, then Breeds contempt, unrest [Lead: Hanneman/King] [Verse 3] Without a reason to fight A time to kill Sick lust for skeletal flesh A taste for all decay Enter the soldier blind Stalking the faceless hunt There is no conscience in this world That can be reached for peace [Verse 4] Why face the human question? The need to hate Dead stare through cynical eyes A trust in only pain Murder within the skin Engrave the art of war Become death's vile parade March on, embrace the violent mind [Pre-Chorus] Can't stop the warring factions Can't stop the warring factions [Chorus 2] Global tension starts aggression Peace breaks out, then Breeds contempt, unrest [Outro] One cryptic reason for life: murder
