1. Dark Forest Doctrine (4:50)
These are desperate times,
Demanding desperate measures in kind.
Callous decisions, ruthless ambitions.
Fear the other, fear the stranger,
Watch the skies and watch your neighbour.
Show no mercy to the traitor, and no remorse.
We view the world in black and white,
A world where only might makes right.
A place of brutal need, with no pity for the weak,
Where safety is not certain, and kindness is a burden,
And survival is not guaranteed.
There is a price...
For every choice we make,
For every decision, and every mistake.
There is a cost, and you must decide:
What are you willing to do to survive?
Now the blood is in the water, and the wolves are at the gate,
And the ones who were the hunters are now hunted by their prey.
Kill or be killed is now the law,
Compassion is a weakness we cannot afford.
There is a price...
For every choice we make,
For every decision, and every mistake.
There is a cost, and you must decide:
What are you willing to do to survive?
Action breeds reaction and provokes retaliation, feeding the
Cycle of suspicion that has driven us too far.
Callous calculations, and the coldest of equations, weaving a
Self-destructive pattern till our mutual destruction has been assured.
A price for everything, for everything a price,
A bloody toll to pay, for every virtue, every vice.
And now the time has come for us to choose our side,
Because there is no room for weakness among us,
And only the strong will survive!
Dark forest doctrine,
Dark forest doctrine,
Dark forest doctrine.
This is the only way,
You're either predator or prey.
Demanding desperate measures in kind.
Callous decisions, ruthless ambitions.
Fear the other, fear the stranger,
Watch the skies and watch your neighbour.
Show no mercy to the traitor, and no remorse.
We view the world in black and white,
A world where only might makes right.
A place of brutal need, with no pity for the weak,
Where safety is not certain, and kindness is a burden,
And survival is not guaranteed.
There is a price...
For every choice we make,
For every decision, and every mistake.
There is a cost, and you must decide:
What are you willing to do to survive?
Now the blood is in the water, and the wolves are at the gate,
And the ones who were the hunters are now hunted by their prey.
Kill or be killed is now the law,
Compassion is a weakness we cannot afford.
There is a price...
For every choice we make,
For every decision, and every mistake.
There is a cost, and you must decide:
What are you willing to do to survive?
Action breeds reaction and provokes retaliation, feeding the
Cycle of suspicion that has driven us too far.

A price for everything, for everything a price,
A bloody toll to pay, for every virtue, every vice.
And now the time has come for us to choose our side,
Because there is no room for weakness among us,
And only the strong will survive!
Dark forest doctrine,
Dark forest doctrine,
Dark forest doctrine.
This is the only way,
You're either predator or prey.
