The Art of Terror

THE ART OF TERROR

Quietly, in the rat holes,
a strategy unfolds.
Looking for the major kill
while keeping the people scared.

Shaking hands with the enemy,
smiling faces while they scheme.
Planning for their attack
from the air, land and sea.

Nations colliding at night,
as we watch the firefight.
Threats coming in,
the mind-fuck begins,
playing with human lives.

Driven by propaganda,
all the news is slanted.
Creating more destruction,
selling lies to the world.

Treating us like fools,
carving out little truths.
Showing you what
they want you to see,
molding your beliefs.

Governments doing dirty deeds,
they don’t care about you and me.
It’s all about the bottom line,
to satisfy their greed.

CHORUS
The art of terror,
displayed before you.
The art of terror,
in a pool of blood.


This is not a revolution,
things are way out of control.
Rotting in their institutions,
men of power sell their souls!

Every nation plays a part,
becoming better at the art.
Calling it the rule of law,
holding their people down.

Nations colliding at night,
as we watch the firefight.
Threats coming in,
the mind-fuck begins,
playing with human lives.

[CHORUS]
The art of terror,
displayed before you.
The art of terror,
in a pool of blood.

This is not a revolution,
things are way out of control.
Rotting in their institutions,
men of power sell their souls!

Governments doing dirty deeds,
they don’t care about you and me.
It’s all about the bottom line,
to satisfy their greed.
