Holy Wars...The Punishment Due

Brother will kill brother
 Spilling blood across the land
 Killing for religion
 Something I don't understand
 Fools like me who cross the sea
 And come to foreign lands
 Ask the sheep for their beliefs
 Do you kill on God's command?
 A country that's divided
 Surely will not stand
 My past erased, no more disgrace
 No foolish naive stand
 The end is near, it's crystal clear
 Part of the master plan
 Don't look now to Israel
 It might be your homelands
 Holy wars
 Up on my podium, as the
 Know-it-all scholar
 Down in my seat of judgement
 Gavel's bang, uphold the law
 Up on my soapbox, a leader
 Out to change the world
 Down in my pulpit as the holier-than-thou
 Could-be-messenger of God
 Wage the war on organized crime
 Sneak attacks, rappel down the rocks
 Behind the lines
 Some people risk to employ me
 Some people live to destroy me
 Either way they die, they die
 They killed my wife and my baby
 With hopes to enslave me
 First mistake, last mistake
 Paid by the alliance, to slay all the giants
 Next mistake, no more mistakes
 Fill the cracks in with judicial granite
 Because I don't say it, don't mean I ain't thinking it
 Next thing you know, they'll take my thoughts away
 I know what I said now I must scream
 Of the overdose and the lack of mercy killings
 Mercy killings, mercy killings, killings, killings, killings
 Next thing you know they'll take my thoughts away
