Missionary

(album: Energy - 1989)

I start it, I end it
I kill and words will defend it
Got big plans, blood stained hands
Wanna put my name on the map

On my way to save the world. On my way to save the world

Got a brand new set of words, and the going rate is cheap
Unconditional devotion, unquestioning belief
Words carved in stone, chiseled in with sharpened bones
Of the ones who thought my righteousness was something to oppose

I start it, I end it
I kill and words will defend it
Got big plans, blood stained hands
Wanna put my name on the map

On my way to save the world. On my way to say the world

Missionary!

Can you see the flag? Rising up beyond the smoke
Of dying authors burning books
There was a problem with what they wrote
The flag is hard to read because all flags start to look the same
When covered with the blood of the faithless and insane

I start it, I end it
I kill and words will defend it
Got big plans, blood stained hands
Wanna put my name on the map

On my way to save the world. On my way to save the world

My world... my world

On my way to save the world. On my way to save the world

Man of many names, but the motives stay the same...
My actions are a means to the end. My action are a means to the end

On my way to save the world. On my way to save the world
On my way to save the world. On my way to save the world
