God Of War Songtext
von As They Sleep

Oh, blessed are the souls
Who escaped the battlefields
And walk in spite of all their woes
The sacred birds are feeding
On the flesh of those left dead and gone
Oh son of Zeus, thy hated one

Words cannot describe
The hate that lies behind your eyes
Thy will
Beseeched
What are you fighting for?
Thy will
Beseeched


Relentless god of war
The gods of Olympus
Look down upon your soiled crown
Your time in hell awaits
For the lives that you′ve put down
Pulled by steeds of fire
With your bloodthirsty desire

Waging war on all who cross your path
God forbid your bloody wrath
They pray the gods to take your life
This plague of never ending strife

With mortal men and gods alike
Left screaming for their lives
Battle lust
Watch Athens fall to dust
Battle lust
The elder gods no longer trust
Battle lust

Must war take all of us?
Unmerciful thou art
This cruel Olympian
You are the god of war
