[Verse 1] This is the first tale of d**h in the world When Cain struck down Abel, a family broken Since then mankind's dominated his own kind To insult and injure, there's no such thing as peace Until dead do us part [Chorus] Until the last truth be told, sin lies at the doorway Truth be told, hell's open for business now Truth be told, the soil cries out for revenge Truth be told, and d**h is upon the ground All around [Verse 2] The battle isn't over without spoils of war Just cause it is written does not make it so When you dance with the devil wait till the song's over I ask myself, "How bad do I want you to live?" My anger is near [Chorus] [Solo - Mustaine] [Solo - Mustaine] [Verse 3] Tribulation strikes and we're hit hard Still you just go on your way Head in the sand, ignoring the rain Just like the flood in Noah's day In his day [Solo - Mustaine] [Verse 4] Can't punish those for ruining the earth It's suicide to some degree Because we are all guilty, guilty as sin There will be no peace, never for you and me [Solo - Mustaine] [Verse 5] Before Al Qaeda and Bin Ladin Long before Hitler and Hussein Ever since the first murder was committed The verdict's always been the same Been the same, wrong [Solo - Mustaine] [Outro] The cursed future just repeats the past There's hell to pay and stones to cast So there will be no peace, never peace Until the last truth be told by you and me
