Homo Homini Lupus Est

from I Become Death by Hereza

/

lyrics

Man's destructive hand
Spares nothing that lives
He kills to amuse himself
For the sake of killing
Proud and terrible king
From a garbage throne he rules
His kingdom junkyard planet
A pile of worthless ruins

From the lamb he tears its guts
And makes his harp resound
From the wolf his deadly tooth
To polish his works of art
From the elephant his tusks
To make a toy for his child
His table is covered with corpses
A bloodthirsty beast

Rivers of blood running deep
Fed by exterminating carnage
This is the true face of man
Homo homini lupus est

In this general carnage
He who exterminates all others
Will exterminate himself
He's heaping up his own funeral pyre

The whole earth,
Perpetually steeped in blood,
Is a vast altar
Upon which all that is living
Must be sacrificed without end,
Without measure, without pause,
Until the consumption of things,
Until evil is extinct,
Until the death of death.

Rivers of blood running deep
Fed by exterminating carnage
This is the true face of man
Homo homini lupus est
