There Will Be Consequences

Stand tall and bow to no one
Each time you fail you learn
Another battle has been lost
Just watch the bastards burn
Welcome this shallow victory
Observe each grain of sand
Know the next time you raise your head
You'll die on my command

There will be consequences
It has to be this way
It has to be this way
There will be consequences
Redemption is no recompense
Deliverance is 'Do you live or die?'
You pay

Live for a fleeting moment
Your past is almost here
Your justice, peace to be undone
The future's very clear
Each pulse, a passing moment
To which the point you've made
Now the next time you raise your head
A heavy price to pay

There will be consequences
It has to be this way
It has to be this way
There will be consequences
Redemption is no recompense
Deliverance is 'Do you live or die?'
You pay

Balance for peace, a balance of power
Question of faith, divide and devour
Calling for peace, a call to empower
Calling for peace, diminish the hour
The payback's in kind
Refuge denied

You bring a storm of hatred
With every life you end
Deluded by what you believe
No hope for you my friend
You leave a footprint on this earth
One sign that you were here
You're just a pointless piece of shit
That needs to disappear

There will be consequences
It has to be this way
It has to be this way
There will be consequences
Redemption is no recompense
Deliverance is 'Do you live or die?'
You pay
