Vain Crusade
by To Die Elsewhere, Misstiq

Album: Vain Crusade - Single


Bombastic bombardment of their bastion
Sarcastic senseless satisfaction
This holy war is a blood lust whore
Where each strike is a detraction

From the long lost, long shot call to action
That at its core was never really more
Than deliberate defensive distraction

This is my crusade
My self righteous calling
With each swing of the blade
It's my message that's falling

Land of the free
Home of the brave
Brave enough to defend my opinion
By sending you to the grave

Our battle's not against flesh and blood
But no one alerted the infantry

The general calls for peace
But we claim violent victory
We claim God's will
And condemn His children
Can't carry an olive branch
In an AK-47

This is my crusade
My self righteous calling
With each swing of the blade
It's my message that's falling

Land of the free
Home of the brave
Brave enough to defend my opinion
By sending you to the grave

A slip slip of the tongue
Like a slit slit of the throat
If your finger is on the trigger
Can you be above reproach?

We forgot to turn the other cheek
And took on vengeance as our own
The first casualty was their ears
And the second was our cause
My words are lost into the static screaming
The constant white noise of hate
The only way left to cut through
Is to love like it's something new
Love like it's something new

Land of the free
Home of the brave
Brave enough to defend my opinion
By sending you to the grave

Lost sight of the war
When we chose the battle
Separated from the Church
When we armed the chapel

This is a vain crusade
