Tyrannizer - This Is War

Verse 1:  
Prepare for attack,  
a wall of blades to come.  
unholy legions,  
fight for no return.  
with sweat and steel,  
we bleed out the scum.  
scythe in hand,  
the reaping’s just begun.  

Pre chorus 1:  
no honour, no glory  
crimson red stains the land,  
affliction, misery,  
death awaits across the sands,  
ruthless, criminal  
flee or die it’s in your hands  
heartless, soulless  
the brotherhood of man  
 
Chorus 1:  
This is war  
kill each other, deliver us peace  
blood for blood  
the body count will never decrease  
 
Verse 2:  
consumed by the fire,  
the hearts of men burned black  
into the jaws of hell they go  
hellbent to attack  
their bloodthirst grows  
the dead can not come back  
avenge the fallen souls  
unveil the final act  
 
Pre chorus 2:  
anger, cruelty  
fueling rage impassioned hate  
suspicious, impatient  
anxious nerves can’t hold the weight  
betrayal, treachery  
deluded by the promise of fate  
allegiance, infamy  
a choice made far too late  
 
Chorus 2:  
This is war  
kill them all to deliver us peace  
blood for blood  
the body count will never decrease  
madness  
engulfing minds that have never known sleep  
endlessly  
the cycle repeats  
 
Verse 3:  
Charging to the front  
the sky begins to dim  
with death approaching fast  
the atmosphere turns grim  
on the fields the bodies fall  
heads, guts and limbs  
a caricature of hell  
reality’s brutal whim  
 
Pre chorus 3:  
in anguish, ruin  
the aftermath of travesty lies  
broken, baseless  
truth is lost in their dead eyes  
no hatred, no sadness  
nothing left to compromise  
the millions that came  
willingly to die  
 
Chorus 3:  
This is war  
kill them all to deliver us peace  
blood for blood  
the body count will never decrease  
hopelessly  
resign yourself so your widows may weep  
endlessly  
watch it repeat
