Blood Axis Herr, Nun Laß In Frieden Lyrics

And he lost his brotherhood. That's the reason that thing fell of the bottom of that gun. He lost hid (...) and he lost his brotherhood from (...) cause he thought it was a big joke to stab somebody in the back, it just took a life for him. If somebody's giving their life for you and they're going in the battlefield for you, you can't very well laugh at them when they come back. If a man's over in Vietnam and he's over there in the mud and in the blood and he's fighting and dyin' for you, then you come over and you spit in his face, what kind of f___ing country could that be? You see what I'm saying? Does that make sence?
- Yea.
You know so it's the same thing all the way down the line. All way down the line people think it's slick to get over on somebody else because they're in a down position. And they find their strange by sacrificing their own lands, but they're not sacrificing the lands of their enemies, they're only sacrificing their own children. They're sacrificing their children for somebody elses children.
My grandfather told me this - he didn't exactly tell me that but he told my grandmother and I know she never lied. So he told my grandmother that he was standing ... in World War 1 he was standing on a dead body ... and he ... he ... he's seen a bible in this guy's pocket and he ... down and he got that bible out of this guy's pocket. And he opened up the bible and there was the man's picture with his wife and his two or three children.
And he had a chain with a cross on it and he looked at the man's bible and he looked at the man's children and he looked at the cross and he looked down to see himself. He said, 'wow, man, what am I doing fighting my brother? I'm down here fighting my brother and I don't even know why I'm fighting this guy!' Why have we been fighting each other? Why are we divided? Why is our house all split up into little pieces? Why are we divided within ourselves?
We worship he same God, we have the same books, the same words - different translations but the same principles! We live by the same codes of honour! Why in hell are we fighting each other? Why did my grandfather kill himself? He comes back and tells my grandmother; 'I was fighting my brothers and I don't even know why! ... And they didn't know why!' Do you want me to tell you why?

They ride on you. They ride on you till there's nothing left of you. ...and so your blood all the way...
