Drawing near the end of days The zealots, in a mindless craze Hear their God, they heap with praise Call all the "others" no more than strays Instructed to exact the pain Till all the rest have all been slain Rewarded with virgins With whom they will lay Bathing in pleasure Beyond the last day Then there's the other group So caught up in the hate So sure that their enemies Have sealed their fate That they have not read The other camps book So, will witness the Hell When the time comes to look Their God is the greatest Each side is so sure They will be chosen Their word is more pure Yet the word was not written By a God, but a man So full in his ignorance Not lacking elan In a time of no Knowledge Consideration, or Care When thunder brought anger From gods through the air The key to remember Only knowledge holds truth We must cast off the faith No understanding without proof
