In the military of ancient Rome, decimation (from Latin decimatio 'removal of a tenth') was a form of military discipline in which every tenth man in a group was executed by members of his cohort.

Lyrics:
Collapsed morale
The regiment debased in shame
Defiled honor, degraded surrender
Their crime a capital offence

Subjugate
Centurions of the legion
Torture and behead
All those who've lost the nerve

Balance the cohort, a lottery of souls
Render to caesar, respect to the law
Bludgeoned to death the shortest of straws
One man in ten to punish them all

Mutiny, desertion, cowardice, insubordination
A compromise is chosen
Slay one in every ten

Decimate
Disgrace has sealed your fate
Decimate
Disgrace has sealed your fate

Refused command
An Indignant loss of grace
A failure of honor
Inspire their terror
An ancestral punishment bane

Dominate
Prefects of the legion
Slaughter and make dead
All those who've lost the nerve

Balance the cohort, a lottery of souls
Render to caesar, respect to the law
Bludgeoned to death the shortest of straws
One man in ten to punish them all

Mutiny, rebellion, cowardice, armed revolution
A compromise is chosen
Slay one in every ten

Decimate
Disgrace has sealed your fate
Decimate
Disgrace has sealed your fate

Balance the cohort, a lottery of souls
Render to caesar, respect to the law
Bludgeoned to death the shortest of straws
One man in ten to punish them all
