Are you even an adult? Are you old enough to vote? It doesn't matter a single bit You're just another faceless cadet Rushed out into the field to stem the bleeding A futile platelet in an ever-flowing stream You're only job is to keep us alive Now get in your mobile suit, it's time to die You, you're a sacrifice Upon the Altar of War We gladly send you to your death So we may take another breath You, you're a sacrifice Upon the Altar of War Giving up your life So that we may survive You are one of dozens Of hundreds, of thousands With a name just for the register A disposable asset on the ledger Your loss is an acceptable cost Of doing the business of conflict And even if you survive this skirmish There's always another battle to come You, you're a sacrifice Upon the Altar of War We gladly send you to your death So we may take another breath You, you're a sacrifice Upon the Altar of War Giving up your life So that we may survive If you return from your first sortie You're still grist for our mill Constant combat will wear you down And if after that, you still live Any promises we made will be broken You'll be left a traumatized shell While we use your image to recruit and sell Your shattered soul will be our offering You, you're a sacrifice Upon the Altar of War We gladly send you to your death So we may take another breath You, you're a sacrifice Upon the Altar of War Giving up your life So that we may survive
