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 blood lust
Sensationalism and violence
As a result of alienation from one self'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

I get closer beat by beat
To get the thing I really need
I'm fucking terrified
Will you be ever satisfied

Handcuffs 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
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 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
