Requiem was recorded in 1997 as a B-Side in the Foo Fighters 1997 album, The Colour and the Shape. It was later in a re-release of the album in 2007, along with other B-Sides. The song is originally from the band Killing Joke and their self-titled 1980 album.
[Verse 1]
Man watching video
The heart keeps on ticking
He doesn't know why
He's just cattle for slaughter
The requiem
[Verse 2]
When the meaningful words
When they cease to function
When there's nothing to say
When will they start plotting against you
[Verse 3]
Only a hint of religion
I'm sensing spirits of depravity
The sound of breaking glass
This is the reflection
Requiem was written by Killing Joke & Helmet.
Requiem was produced by Wharton Tiers.
