lyrics

war
war
join us now
the weight and the burden
on your shoulders
bring us to war
bring us to war
to war
if not fought for
we shall lose more
it’s all for the taking
it’s yours
on to war
tusk tears the enemy
trample the rest
toss aside the foes
as if you were possessed
careful to not lose more
it’s all for the taking
it’s yours
on to war
and then there was capture
captured by trickery
forced into slavery
kept in captivity
summoning bravery
the tides
the tides
they turn
change has come
all undone forever
the change has come
all undone forever
forever
the tides
they turn
the tides
how they turn
