Ares

Performed by Johnny Stranger

Written by Peter Anthony

If you expose your desires and be honest with yourself

we speak fancy words about peace

but look up at the screen in your cinema

you will find war romanticized and dramatized

your hero carries a big stick

there is no grey, just black and white

a phallic symbol of justice is in your fist, you’re the judge

they’re the other you’ve been told of

quickly, yes now, that’s the spirit

Ares calls out. Can you hear it?

In the flood, we all go mad

when the blood mingles with sweat.

It’s kill or be killed in this flood.

And it’s better than sex.

Sex.

Come fly, become the wolf among the flock.

Come fly, a reaper harvesting the stalks.

If you expose your desires and be honest with yourself

we speak fancy words about peace

but look up at the screen

admit to your true being

Come fly, become the wolf among the flock.

Come fly, a reaper harvesting the stalks.

Violence is like a drug to most of us

Get high off of the carnal bloodlust
