Motörhead Lyrics
"The Thousand Names Of God"

Walking forever is a long, long time

Destiny is just the same old line

The war has come and we have let it come

The war for the blood of the chosen one

All that you see is illusion

And all you feel is mute confusion

The war is never over

No one ever sees the black machine

You'll never fill my shoes

Out on the killing floor, the eagle screams

Bad man luck and bad man dreams

No, you cannot kill the time

You will not have to choose

And then you'll have to pay your dues

You don't care about the pain

You will survive the day

To speak the thousand names of God

Outside the law is such a lonely place

Learning and hiding, trying to change your face

The war is coming, we don't understand

The role for the world and the future land

All of your days are dying

All of the doomsday birds are flying

The war is never over

Nobody ever likes to hear the truth

Too much like taking blame

The way we are, we are the living proof

Bad news boogie and sunk in shame

No, you cannot kill the time

You will not have to choose

And then you'll have to pay your dues

You don't care about the pain

You will survive the day

To speak the thousand names of God

Under the world is only dead and cold

And you still think that you can save your soul

The war has come and we have washed our hands

Bathed in the blood of the fighting man

All of your hearts are broken

And every magic word is spoken

The war is never over

You'll never walk out of this poison ground

You'll never be the one

Your head will never get to wear the crown

No luck left when hope is gone

No, you cannot kill the time

You will not have to choose

And then you'll have to pay your dues

You don't care about the pain

You will survive the day

And speak the thousand names of God
