Scouts Honor

from Wolfgoat by Wolfgoat

lyrics

Spirits made of glass and boots made of steel. Small hearts bound in brass, children forced to kneel. The neon fuhrer's reign, beaming across the air. Father killed our gods, what do we have to fear? And all our values, our faith, and hearts: We've killed ourselves for less. Swear it, swear it, dye that badge with blood. Empty honour, Militarize your child. Father, father, offer up their lives. Loyal Boyscout, men are made in death. Our children enslaved. Raised loyal and brave. Uniform in faith, grown soldiers of hate. One more soldier born, one more body bag, one more heart on fire, one more spirit dead, one more parent jailed, one more parent raped. One more brave child, one more grave dug, one more brick laid, one more boy scout honoured. A child army stands, hearts all ablaze. Hymns of purest hate on their young lips. The government, their God, a Father feared. And honour just a word to be earned.
