Lyrics
Your life begins at 17, you enlist with Uncle Sam
Trained for battle, prepared to die, you don't give a damn
Your weapon is your life and love shooting the enemy down
Killing women and children and everyone around
First fought for freedom now for pleasure, you've now become obsessed
Never feel at ease until you're laid to rest
Sergeant tells you and you carry out his every command
No return from this life, you're on the 4 year plan
Born to kill
There's no retreat
Live to fight
A killing machine
Politicians play a deadly game, now you play it too
Once you die, you're forgotten, they'll find somebody new
Seeing through different eyes much better than the old
Block out all the needless carnage
Your heart grows cold
Stripped of your humanity, no choice but to obey
Turned into a predator, civilians are your prey
Born to kill
There's no retreat
Live to fight
A killing machine
Seeing through different eyes much better than the old
Block out all the needless carnage
Your heart grows cold
Stripped of your humanity, no choice but to obey
Turned into a predator, civilians are your prey
Politicians play a deadly game, now you play it too
Once you die, you're forgotten, they'll find somebody new
Born to kill
There's no retreat
Live to fight
A killing machine
