| Formed, in ancient Rome, violent, age of steel
|
| Man’s, brutality, found new depths of pleasure
|
| Slaves, captured in raging battles, forced, to fight, till the death
|
| Senseless, brutal show of strength, immoral side of man
|
| Fight, for your life, Fight, till the death!
|
| Vile, sadistic games, elate, heartless souls
|
| Roman, way of life, savour, a human sacrifice
|
| Prisoners, could die by the sword, or live their lives in shame
|
| Treacherous, murderous, thieves, helpless feast for the lions
|
| Fight, for your life, Fight, till the death!
|
| Refusal, to worship, the Gods, of the Roman State
|
| Civil, disobedience, quickly, ends your life
|
| Dying on display before thousands, their death will please tonight
|
| Latin, spectacle of violence, Rome’s malevolent society
|
| They stand, alone, in the ring, with sword, in hand
|
| Preparing, to fight for their lives, to fight till the death, to die for
|
| Rome’s pleasure
|
| With blood, on their hands, a friend, lies bleeding before God |
