Dying To Meet You - Judas Priest

Came in this morning high on a bird’s wing

Wide open minded, but still quite aware

Followed the sunrise right through from dawning

Picking out landmarks that said I was there

Lead to positions by stern faced leaders

Who never let one smile depart from their face

Then with an arm raised the slaughter is started

One or two crack up and start to cry

A selfishness breeds in this cesspool of sorrow

And every few moments I see a friend die

Synchronized watches flash in the sunlight

As into the battle we are all led

Killer, killer, you keep your thoughts at bay

Maiming, destroying every single day

Is this the way that you get your fun

Slaying, waylaying in the heat of the midday sun

Get out, get out, go and do your job

Rape and pillage, squander all and rob

You make me sick getting paid for murder

But you wouldn’t lay a finger on your mother, oh, no

You’ll never ever dream to hurt her

Hero, hero, you have done so well

So sit back and lick your wounds

Because you won’t go to hell

Take your medal, wear it now with pride

Consolation for the pain and sin you feel inside
