Lostprophets – Dstryr/Dstryr Lyrics

Rock

"All Hail!".
The leaders of the revolution.
We've got your policy, your war, your hate, your retribution!
"All Hail!".
The sheer failure of a nation. S.O.S boys, this is white noise.

Destroyer, Destroyer, we sing it like a funeral choir.
Mourning now our hope is burning in the fire.
Deceiver, Deceiver. You never were a great achiever.
This is a joke. I hope you choke, non believer.

Everything you destroy, we replace.
Destroyer, Destroyer !
Every word you write, we will erase.
Destroyer, Destroyer !
Every time you think you've stopped us, we rise up stronger from the dust.
Turn around motherfucker, 'cause we ain't done.
Destroy! Destroy! Destroy! Destroy!

"All Hail!".
The shot that set a nation running.
The smoking shells are piling up, just keep 'em coming.
"All Hail!"
The warning sound of our salvation.
Line 'em up boys, this is white noise.

Destroyer, Destroyer. Religion needs a new employer.
I've got the rope to hang your Jesus even higher.
Deceiver, Deceiver. I load the truth and cock the lever,
and then I'll take my aim towards your fucking leaders.

Everything you destroy, we replace.
Destroyer, Destroyer !
Every word you write, we will erase.
Destroyer, Destroyer !
Every time you think you've stopped us, we rise up stronger from the dust.
Turn around motherfucker, 'cause we ain't done.

Destroyer, Destroyer, we live inside the fire.
Destroyer, Destroyer, we live inside the fire.
Destroyer, Destroyer, we live inside the fire.
Destroyer, Destroyer, we live inside of you!

Destroyer, Destroyer, we live inside the fire.
Destroyer, Destroyer, we live inside the fire.
Destroyer, Destroyer, we live inside the fire.
Destroyer, Destroyer, we live inside of you!

Destroyer, Destroyer, we live inside of you!
Destroyer, Destroyer, we live inside of you!
Destroyer, Destroyer, we live inside of you!
Destroyer, Destroyer, we live inside of you!

We live inside of you!
We live inside of you!

Everything you destroy, we replace.
Destroyer, Destroyer !
Every word you write, we will erase.
Destroyer, Destroyer !
Every time you think you've stopped us, we rise up stronger from the dust.
Turn around motherfucker, 'cause we ain't done.

Destroy! Destroy! Destroy!

We live inside of you.
We live inside of you.

    why mock JESUS, what does it mean? although the song technicality is really good, i just can't get the meaning of I've got a rope to hang you're JESUS even higher. I listen to other bands like as i lay dying even though the songs are more heavy than lostprophetsi didn't hear any lyrics on their song mocking JESUS.

    It's not mocking Jesus, it's mocking the 'messiah' of a nation, think how the Democrats Idolise Obama, Republicans idolised Bush, Tories idolise Thatcher.

    The way I see it, they're not mocking Jesus. They're mocking religious hypocrites with that line.And there is nothing more wrong with mocking Jesus than there is with worshiping him.
