LyricMeaning

Spoils of War
Derelict

This is a haunted land

And the ghouls walk among men

Their affliction transcends


We are beyond redemption

Beyond sympathy


Behold the fruits of our labor

The ill-begotten spoils of war


De-education is the sharpest blade

With which to amputate

Pride, confidence, wisdom and honor

Genetically picked out and slaughtered



A heavy conscience hangs

Only on those who dare to see through the dream


We justify the sins of our fathers

We build upon a foundation of bones


We take to heart the lies of our mothers

We lock our souls in an armor of stone


History is written in chalk

By those who hold the steel

Our dreams of vengeance must one day overcome our apathy
