Serial Killer (tormented) Lyrics - 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 

As a land we clean our minds, reap our belongings 

Sow our angers and our strengths 

All to 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 that we salute or burn 

There is blood on both shores 

With hardened mind I travelled 

And with hardened heart I conquered 

A freedom so ironic, so despicable, so hypocritical

There is anger resolute 

Rears its familiar ugly head on the TV screen 

In a dozen bags a life was placed 

In a breath he smiled and waved 

Five minutes at a time the power held true 

And without consternation our laws are lost 

Lost to butchers, lost to child killers, lost to narcotic ritual 

Another tag, another headline 

Another smiling photograph shall stay ten winters long forever 

Photos 

And where are the angels to guard? 

Where's the God of men and children? 

He is stalking the minds of dark poor souls 

And I know it's right 'cause I know it's time for freedom 

To kill another, and to kill another, and to kill another child 

Of the flag 'till there are none left 

And another, and another, and another...
