Fire the Canons!

"to the death" cries the general
to the death young men and old
for your time is up today
your bodies must feed the earth
with your breath broken bones
fight the enemy for glory
for pride and for nothing
not a voice can stop
this violence
not a silence can halt
this war
let your mind be full of hatred
let your mouth overflow with screams
to let live is to give mercy
undeserved and unforgivable
to kill is divine justice
to the death our cause will fall
slay yourselves with murder
stab the one who follows
the opposite way the wrong
they came to meet their maker
they came to meet their taker
of life and hope and song
ignite the wick
propell the lead
fire the canons
we're all dead


Colin and Co.
