Serial Killer VNV Nation

In a face a view, through eyes this world collides
I am voiceless in my angst
And nothing can take us back to innocence
Short, sharp, bloodlust reality
In despair I reach for night

In water purity reigns to be resolute
And as a land we clean our minds, reap our belongings
Sew our angers and our strengths
All too obsessed by weakness
We have brought ourselves to meaninglessness

So easy to control, bring to harm
A gathering of fools unjustified, on a mountain
And I collect my thoughts
And I rise above all that despises me

Comprehend the ways of man and under a flag
We salute or burn, there is blood on both shores
With hardened mind I traveled, with hardened mind I conquered
A freedom so ironic, so despicable, so hypocritical

There is anger resolute
Rears its familiar head on the TV screen
In a dozen bags a life was placed
In a breath he smiled and waved
