[Verse 1]

Did you come here to kill

Or did you come here to die?

And did you really think that spaceships

Would descend from the sky?


[Verse 2]

Bending light

And beaming forth across space-time

To see us scared

In the reflection of their oil-black eyes

To stalk us as a predator

Like our movies imply


[Verse 3]

They're not the ones who've come to kill us

Come to fill us full of lead

They're not the ones who hate us


[Verse 4]

And they are not the ones who mutilate our animals

Or travel through the stars

They're not the ones who cause us harm (We are)

We are, we are, we are


[Verse 5]

We are still-life and cold-blooded

We feel nothing

We are still-life and cold-blooded

We feel nothing


[Verse 6]

Hell-bent on heaven

Hell-bent on heaven

Hell-bent on heaven

Hell-bent on heaven


[Bridge]

While our righteous men are stuffing corpses

Full of shit and faith


[Verse 7]

We are, we are, we are still-life

We are, we are, we are still-life

We are, we are, we are

Still-life


[Verse 8]

They're not the ones who cause us harm

We are, we are

Did you come here to kill

Or did you come here to die?

We are still-life, in cold blood

We are still-life, in cold blood

And we feel

And we feel nothing


[Verse 9]

Stuffing corpses

Full of shit and faith

They bloviate about a future beyond the moon

To bring about another planet's doom

To discover peaceful life

And beat our war drum to its tune

Unless my prayers are answered

Our end is coming soon
