War

In the minds of men I’m always hiding.

That hot fury that’s lodged like rocks in gears.

With impatience against time I will be biding

Ready to cripple bodies with cold fears.

I lay waste to fools, friendship and desire.

With one shot I destroy the bonds of love,

With another, a country’s will is set on fire.

The symbol of peace no longer is a dove.

Instead the soldier's rifle takes its place

His death is payment for your liberty

it’s now a simple race lacking all our grace

To summon the most brutality

there’s many ways to open up my door

My only cause is to kill: my name is war
