Sent To Destroy
Combichrist[OST DmC] Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Iron boots, we're walking tall
With pride we'll walk all over you
Steel grip, we'll hold you down
On a leash, we're coming through

Metal teeth, a diamond smile
Mechanical jaws, a two ton bite
With winter frost, an atomic pile
We stand the ground where the big dog's fight

Divine inferno, hell on ice
Heaven's burning, sacrifice
Divine inferno, hell on ice
Heaven's burning, sacrifice

Your God sent us to destroy
Your God sent us to destroy
Your God sent us to destroy
Your God sent us to destroy

You

Nuclear war, behind glass walls
We long for the storm, we stray from our path
Feel the walls, closing in
Chasing our trails, we're feeding our wrath

Metal teeth, a diamond smile
Mechanical jaws, a two ton bite
With winter frost, an atomic pile
We stand the ground where the big dog's fight

Divine inferno, hell on ice
Heaven's burning, sacrifice
Divine inferno, hell on ice
Heaven's burning, sacrifice

Your God sent us to destroy
Your God sent us to destroy
Your God sent us to destroy
Your God sent us to destroy

You
You
You

Your God sent us to destroy
Your God sent us to destroy
Your God sent us to destroy
Your God sent us to destroy





Your God sent us to destroy
Your God sent us to destroy

I will never forget going to see Rammstein in Ontario back in 2011 and I had no idea who was opening for them, a few songs in I looked at my cousin and yelled "This is combichrist!" It is to this day the best concert ive ever seen, Rammstein absolutely killed it with over the top effects and vocals and combichrist was the perfect opener.

@joehenderson6293

Combichrist is better than rammstein

@Desecrator6

how dare both of you... there's a reason they were opening act... don't deny Rammstein their glory... they've worked their asses off.

@user-gq8ll3tg3u

can't agree more.

@lucia066

@@user-ij8zl3mo9vi mean they're overrated cuz they're good, im both huge fans of both bands

@Blutrache

There will be no better openers than them for Rammstein, nowadays they take the same 2 girls, again and again, who play Rammstein songs at piano. At first it's boring and in second it's totally useless because you'll hear these songs few minutes later in a far better way.
