Lyrics

0:41For whom the gun tolls
0:44For whom the prey weeps
0:46Bow before a war
0:49Call it religion
0:52Some wounds never heal
0:55Some tears never will
0:57Dry for the unkind
1:00Cry for mankind
1:03Even the dead cry
1:06Their only comfort
1:08Kill your friend I don't care
1:11Orchid kids blinded stare
1:14Need to understand
1:16No need to forgive
1:19No truth no sense left to be followed
2:24Facing this unbearable fear like meeting an old friend
2:34But me
2:35In this world of a million religions everyone prays the same way
2:42Your praying is in vain it'll all be over soon
2:57Father help me save me a place by your side
3:02There is no God
3:04Our creed is but for ourselves
3:08Not a hero unless you die
3:12Our species eat the wounded ones
3:14Drunk with the blood of your victims
3:16I do feel your pity-wanting pain
3:19Lust for fame a deadly game
3:23Run away with your impeccable kin
3:27Good wombs hath borne bad sons
3:29Cursing God why
3:31Falling for every lie
3:34Survivors' guilt
3:37In us forevermore
3:4015 candles
3:42Redeemers of this world
3:45Dwell in hypocrisy
3:47How were we supposed to know
For whom the gun tolls
For whom the prey weeps
Bow before a war
Call it religion
Some wounds never heal
Some tears never will
Dry for the unkind
Cry for mankind
Even the dead cry
Their only comfort
Kill your friend I don't care
Orchid kids blinded stare
Need to understand
No need to forgive
No truth no sense left to be followed
Facing this unbearable fear like meeting an old friend
But me
In this world of a million religions everyone prays the same way
Your praying is in vain it'll all be over soon
Father help me save me a place by your side
There is no God
Our creed is but for ourselves
Not a hero unless you die
Our species eat the wounded ones
Drunk with the blood of your victims
I do feel your pity-wanting pain
Lust for fame a deadly game
Run away with your impeccable kin
Good wombs hath borne bad sons
Cursing God why
Falling for every lie
Survivors' guilt
In us forevermore
15 candles
Redeemers of this world
Dwell in hypocrisy
How were we supposed to know
