Is this the life you will keep?
Shadows lay their claim of the land
Will you rise or will you sleep?
The power waits for those who take command
(Friends, I love war)
Words of power I can't deny
Orders have cut through quiet lives
I cannot speak
I dare not speak
Banners are raised and you see them wave
And defiance always proves in vain
Edicts have worked their way far down the chain
I'm amazed
They'll give you proofs, one by one
Just to put you on their side
But why?
When the gates are tried
They're closed tight
How long have we been silent
Letting every command crush what we knew?
Do you
See what's coming through?
Do you?
We're storming through
Nothing gets in our way
All that you built
Will bend to what we say
They tore us down
And they will regret that
It's time to charge
And we will not turn back
And all that's in our way
Will hit the floor
We don't forget
We just settle the score
We are ready
And will pay the price
Better step fast
Or get buried alive!
Do you want change for tired ways?
Nothing will stay except remains
Silence betrays
Always betrays
Our will denied, their power applied
In the square burns a shadowed design
Every voice reassigned
Truth is disguised
Tongues are tied
A rule will bend under a weight it cannot override
Oh my
No more will I hide
Not this time
(No more, no more, no more)
The earth shakes from footsteps
And from something walking deep beneath the ground
Way down
Do you hear hidden sound?
All around?
I'm storming through
Nothing gets in my way
All that you built
Will bend to what I say
They tore us down
And they will regret that
It's time to charge
And I will not turn back
All that's in my way
Will hit the floor
I don't get mad
I just settle the score
I am ready
And will pay the price
Better step fast
Or get buried alive!
(Do you ask for war to sweep in like a tempest)
(Leaving not even ravens to scavenge, from this Earth!?)
