Genocide Lyrics by HammerFall

Threshold

2006

Once, there was a time
When we were standing
Back to back
Against the whole conception
Once, we had it all
The world was our pleasure dome

Times were changing fast
Our dreams were fading black
The darkness fell on our creation
Time was running out
We were falling one by one

We live by honour, we fight for freedom
We die, but you can't slay our pride

Behind these walls, we deem
Take hold of the dream
To live our lives as we please
Metal genocide
No fear, we know the end is near
One day we will retaliate
Genocide

Fall, mighty Babylon
Your might is declining fast
You're on your knees
Repent your sinning
Fall beyond the realms of Hell
We are born again

We live by honour, we fight for freedom
We die, but you can't slay our pride

Behind these walls, we deem
Take hold of the dream
To live our lives as we please
Metal genocide
No fear, we know the end is near
One day we will retaliate
Genocide

Behind these walls, we deem
Take hold of the dream
To live our lives as we please
Metal genocide
No fear, we know the end is near
One day we will retaliate

Behind these walls, we deem
Take hold of the dream
To live our lives as we please
Metal genocide
No fear, we know the end is near
One day we will retaliate
Genocide
