Dying To Meet You

Judas Priest · Genocide [2000]

Came in this morning high on a bird's wing

Wide open minded,but still quite aware

Followed the sunrise right through from dawning

Picking out landmarks that said i was there

Lead to positions by stern faced leaders

Who never let one smile depart from their face



Then with an arm raised the slaughter is started

One or two crack up and start to cry

Selfishness breeds in this cesspool of sorrow

And every few moments I see a friend die

Synchronized watches flash in the sunlight

As into the battle we are all led



Killer, killer, keep your thoughts at bay

Maiming, destroying, every single day

Slaying, betraying in the heat of the midday sun

Rape and pillage, squander all and rob.

You make me sick getting paid for murder

You'd never lay a finger on your mother, oh no

You'd never ever dream to hurt her



Hero, hero, you have done so well

So sit back and lick your wounds

Cause you won't go to Hell

Take your medal, wear it now with pride

Consolation for the pain and sin you feel inside
