Kill Them All Lyrics


Hot summer 1209, French Catholic and Cathar's citizens

Fight along side each other to save their town Beziers

Crusaders storm a gate and break into the town

They lock defenders in the church and set one on fire

There were not burned, were out to the sword

I rushed up to Abbot of Citeas and reminded him

There are catholics as well as heretics

The answer was:

CHORUS:

"Kill them all" he said

God will know his own

I see alone mankind's self-torturing pain

The Church' is on fire and thousands die

I've been watching that... and wept

Hot summer 1941, Ukraine, Babiy Yar. Russians and Jews

Stand together in front of huge hole on the ground

Nazi soldiers are shooting them and throw bodies in the hole

Those that were not slaughtered were locked in the barn

Which was then set on fire

I walked to Ober-shtoorban Fuhrer and reminded him

There are Slovanians as well as Jews

The answer was

CHORUS:

"Kill them all" he said

God will know his own

I see alone mankind's self-torturing pain

The Church’ is on fire and thousand die

I've been watching that... and wept

Hot summer of 1945, Japan. Millions of peaceful Japanese

Hurry to their jobs, colleges, schools

The Fatal bomb is rapidly falling down from Hirosima's sky

In a moment an entire city was dead

There were some that miraculously survived, still dying 'till this day

I stood among the ruins and tried to catch

A glimpse of the Peoples Great statue the First Man

But I couldn't... only his voice

CHORUS:

"Kill them all" he said

God will know his own

I see alone mankind’s self-torturing pain

The Church’ is on fire and thousands die

I've been watching that... and wept
