lyrics

I'm not afraid of the enemy
just what's inside of you and me
all the fear and all the hate
all the horrors they perpetrate

I won't cower to a demagogue
I'm not impressed by a gilded god
I only worry this obscenity
is somehow a part of me

I saw your smile
from across the blasted trench
White teeth scattered
as I pulled the trigger

I'm not afraid of the fucking Russians
I'm not afraid of the fucking Muslims
I'm afraid of boundless riches
Avarice and how it bewitches

I won't cower to a demagogue
I'm not impressed by a gilded god
I only worry this obscenity
is somehow a part of me

I don't have to hate you
to annihilate you
I still kept the notes you gave me
during our Christmas truce

You learn to accept it
no need to resent it
we all walk across these bones
our legacy is rape and death
