about

Track 3 of 13 from The War Came Swiftly
On the systematic extermination of the Jewish people

lyrics

Trying not to fight to live another day I pray to god I last my plight they desecrate this temple of the mind all the while I wait with nose to grindstone I’m thrown deep into mania I find myself wandering ponderings stuck in my cranium sweet schizophrenia at scenes of hysteria trembling violently this is the fear that will bury ya several millennia faced with adversity at last We fall on the merciless arms of our homeland nomads once again We march our clan faces a purge yet another scourge the plague to scorch with tongues of flame to wipe our names from history are We not destined for liberty marching off to certain death, to waste away to be oppressed the mind decays there’s no escape from this duress today We cannot wait the time has come to rise surprise them with our own pyre the tempest keeps churning round burning down ghetto and camp fires starving the life from our bones We are going to die if We stand by idly brothers We must defy this frigid cold strike a blow to loosen their hold their grasp on your soul is tight so once again, I pray We all see this plight through if you believe what they tell you you might as Well do nothing loving the lies and just trusting the tempest is coming take to the enemy with a thirst for serenity lost to the sands of forty years to wind up in the flames maintain your faith and pray for your freedom the audacity when war finally came We were callously reviled and defamed in their blasphemy conspiring our shame feel the apathy community feigned God in apogee our prayers were in vain systematically imprisoned and framed now mortality the most inhumane labeled malady then tortured and slain!
