3. War Eternal (4:21)
[Lyrics: Michael Amott, Music: Michael Amott/Nick Cordle]
Friend or foe?
There's no way to know
Through the battlefield of life
It's kill or be killed
So many times
It's a matter of degree
From being up on your luck
To down on your knees
It's a hellish inferno
This is war eternal
[Chorus:]
They try to change you
Crush and break you
Try to tell you what to do
They'd like to have control of you
Back against the wall
In danger of losing it all
Search deep inside
Remember who you are
It's times like these
When lines are drawn
Which side of the fence
Are you standing on?
There will come a day
Not so far away
When the hunter
Becomes the prey
It's a hellish inferno
This is war eternal
[Chorus:]
They try to change you
Crush and break you
Try to tell you what to do
They'd like to have control of you
Back against the wall
In danger of losing it all
Search deep inside
Remember who you are
This is fucking war!
They try to change you
Crush and break you
Try to tell you what to do
They'd like to have control of you
Back against the wall
In danger of losing it all
Search deep inside
Remember who you are
Friend or foe?
There's no way to know
Through the battlefield of life
It's kill or be killed
So many times
It's a matter of degree
From being up on your luck
To down on your knees
It's a hellish inferno
This is war eternal
[Chorus:]
They try to change you
Crush and break you
Try to tell you what to do
They'd like to have control of you
Back against the wall
In danger of losing it all
Search deep inside
Remember who you are
It's times like these
When lines are drawn
Which side of the fence
Are you standing on?
There will come a day
Not so far away
When the hunter
Becomes the prey
It's a hellish inferno
This is war eternal
[Chorus:]
They try to change you
Crush and break you
Try to tell you what to do
They'd like to have control of you
Back against the wall
In danger of losing it all
Search deep inside
Remember who you are
This is fucking war!
They try to change you
Crush and break you
Try to tell you what to do
They'd like to have control of you
Back against the wall
In danger of losing it all
Search deep inside
Remember who you are
