Designing The Enemy

Fear Factory · Mechanize [2010]

All you are

I have made

All that I wanted

I gave to you

I have no sympathy

I show no mercy

All that I hated

I placed in you

I wait for the time

Your time to kill

All you are

I have made

The conflict is pure

The truth devised

The future secured

The enemy designed

Pure, hate, kill

All you are

I have made
