KMFDM - Terror lyrics

"Some people call them terrorists
These boys have simply been misguided"

I tried to keep my faith alive
I'm close enough to trip the wire
I cannot keep my hate inside
I'm gonna set myself on fire
I get closer, beat by beat
To get the thing I really need
I'm fucking terrified
Will you be ever satisfied?

"Day after day, innocent people
Are being deported
Interrogated and tortured - put
Through the third degree
Fundamentalist forces are undermining
The integrity of
Liberal and democratic political structures
Radical anarchists
Fascists and terrorists are responsible
For the violence"

I tried to keep my faith alive
I'm close enough to trip the wire
I cannot keep my hate inside
I'm gonna set myself on fire
I get closer, beat by beat
To get the thing I really need
I'm fucking terrified
Will you be ever satisfied?

"Our societies are saturated with bloodlust
Sensationalism and violence as a result
Of alienation from oneself's reality
How much longer do we tolerate mass murder?"
I tried to keep my faith alive
I'm close enough to trip the wire
I cannot keep my hate inside
I'm gonna set myself on fire

"Hand-cuffs and shackles won't frighten us
Neither cattle prod nor electrical
Whip will silence us
We shall use all peaceful
Means to overcome tyranny
Persist and march on
They can't use our shame against us
Regardless of race, social status or gender
We're all affected"

I tried to keep my faith alive
(Keep my faith alive)
I'm close enough to trip the wire
(Trip the fucking wire)
I cannot keep my hate inside
(I hate myself inside)
I'm gonna set myself on fire
(Set myself on fire)
I get closer, beat by beat
To get the thing I really need
I get closer, beat by beat
To get the thing I really need
I get closer, beat by beat
To get the thing I really need
I'm fucking terrified
Will you be ever satisfied?
