In Flames
Graveland
[Verse 1]
Mankind - proud conqueror and king
Swings its flag of primal glory to the winds
Titans of the power-myth that failed
Neanderthal hunger for the flesh of war so frail

[Pre-Chorus]
So weak, so hollow-minded
The primat flock responds
The jester race submits

[Chorus]
For each day of war is a failure for man
Enslaved in her mordial genes
Illusions bleed from their fetid cores
Bent to their rotten extremes

[Verse 2]
We, the plague of Terra Firma
Nature's grand and last mistake
Plant the poisoned seed of cancer
Set the severed fruits awake
Burning like frozen relics
In god's archaic graveland

[Pre-Chorus]
So weak, so hollow-minded
The primat flock responds
The jester race submits
[Chorus]
For each day of war is a failure for man
Enslaved in her mordial genes
Illusions bleed from their fetid cores
Bent to their rotten extremes

[Bridge 1]
Burn the visionaire
Kill the ideologies
Mankind must die

[Bridge 2]
The doves and the angels return to their graves
With flames on their pestilent wings
While mushroom-clouds haunt their virgin-white skies
To rape their utopian dreams

[Chorus]
For each day of war is a failure for man
Enslaved in her mordial genes
Illusions bleed from their fetid cores
Bent to their rotten extremes

[Outro]
Living the last days of evolution's end
From the nest of humanity
The graveland vultures rend
