LYRICS FOR "Belly of the Beast"

You walk this earth without a heart
You tear the innocents souls apart
You shovel your conscience into the grave

You walk this earth without a heart
Your uniform couldn't be take off
A tattoo burned into your flesh
Your mind, your voice
These are your instruments of death

How could you dare to be so bold?
You only did as you were told
Marionettes dancing in time
To the apologetic lines
For all the monsters of our time

Who is evil? Who is blind?
In the name of who you'll find
A city of souls dying for peace
Welcome to the belly of the beast

One mind, one voice
Welcome to the belly of the beast
Who hears, your voice?
Million
Never, never again
Madness
Never, never again
Martyrs
Dead that can't die
Monsters

Insanity, the normal state
The left hand a hammer, the right, the stake
Driven so deep into the heart
It's killing love, it's killing faith
It's killing 'cause it's from the heart

What better way to demoralize
When your own children are your spies?
The things you trust are not the same
Trust in death, trust in grief
Trust in hope is trust in pain

Who is evil? Who is blind?
In the name of who you'll find
A city of souls dying for peace
Welcome to the belly of the beast

One mind, one voice
Welcome to the belly of the beast
Who hears, your voice?
Million
Never, never again
Madness
Never, never again
Martyrs
Dead that can't die
Monsters

Who is evil?
Who is blind?
In the name of
Who you'll find
You're not supposed to question faith
But how do you accept this fate?

Million
You walk this earth without a heart
Madness
Tear the innocents souls apart
Martyrs
Shovel your conscience into the grave
Monsters

A city of souls dying for peace
Welcome to the belly of the beast

One mind, one voice
Welcome to the belly of the beast
Who hears, your voice?
This is the belly of the beast

And all the souls dying for peace
Inside the belly of the beast
Millions
Never, never again
Madness
Never, never again
Martyrs
Dead that can't die
Monsters
