I am a product of what state controls

We emerge from the fog of war

Stalk, with weapons in our hands, but not our land

Patrol

We liberate by force

Indiscriminate targeting

Civilian casualties

No mercy as the chaos breeds

Endless waves of suffering

I can’t take this fucking misery

Take me to a better day

Forgive all my mistakes or

Tear me apart

Cut out my heart

Ruin me

Extinguish

I suffer the cost of all your lies

Consumed with shame

Violence done in peace’s name

Propaganda wipes my slate clean

Disgust

I walk a darkened path of disillusionment

Pushing me to the edge until I

Finally fucking break

I am freed from the killing machine

Where the corpses rot and the maggots feast

For the people I swore to defend

I will bring your reign to its end

Slit the throats of tyrants and the kings

Fulfil my dream of liberty

Until my ideals retreat

And our history repeats

Guns fire, explosions roar

This is the start of it all

We don’t know what we’re fighting for

Then we emerge from the fog of war
