"Terror" lyrics

"Terror"

Once upon a time in an unknown sky
From an unnamed source through an unclear line
Flew an unmanned drone they called Lady Night
It's an inside joke
That nobody knows

Seven people dead
Burned the villagers
Not exactly sure what the target is
The preemptive strike
From the heads of state
The horizon's dark
In the name of

Terror, terror, terror, terror

Past the target site
Through the unmarked graves
Down and out of sight
Cataract of light
In the name of God
Our surveillance state
In the name of war
Never-ending

Terror, terror, terror, terror
Terror, terror, terror, terror

New world empire
Take aim and fire
New world empire
New world empire
Take aim and fire
New world empire
Take aim and fire

Terror, terror, terror, terror
Terror, terror, terror, terror

New world empire
Take aim and fire
New world empire
Take aim and fire
