A Nightmare to Consume Lyrics by Monster Squad

Fire the Faith

2007

[Verse 1]
Imagine sleeping in your bed
A deafening sound rattles your head
You sneak a look from your door
Your mother's dead, lying on the floor
Soldiers gather around the corpse
Brutally murdered with intensive force
Doors smashed in, soldiers take aim
Your father's life is taken the same
(Your father's life is taken the same)
A thick blade carves through his throat
Your hero’s gone along with hope
Blood stains the walls and covers the floors
Off they go, in to the next door
Thoughts quickly pass through your mind
Your sister's five and she's next in line
[Verse 2]
You hear her screams, then six shots
Gargling blood covers her thoughts
Waiting for death, you cower and cry
Knowing you are next to die
Silence fills your shredded home
There you are, you're left alone
Running down to your sister's room
How much more can you consume?
(How much more can you consume?)
See her lay with six to the chest
Hold her as she takes her last breath
“Hush little baby and don't say a word
I'll meet you in heaven to fly with the birds”
For those of you who just turn their back
This just happened in Iraq
