Letras This is War
ESCAPE
Time to escape the clutches of a name,
No this is not a game,
It's just a new beginning.
I don't believe in fate but the bottom line,
It's time to pay,
You know you've got it coming.
This is war!
NIGHT OF THE HUNTER
(La nuit du chasseur)
I was born of the womb of a poisonous man
Beaten and broken and chased from the land
But I rise up above it, high up above it and see
I was hung from the tree made of tongues of the weak
The branches, the bones of the liars and thieves
Rise up above it, high up above it and see
Pray to your god, open your heart
Whatever you do, don't be afraid of the dark
Cover your eyes, the devil's inside
One night of the hunter
One day I will get revenge
One night to remember
One day it'll all just end, oh
(Une, deux, trois, cinq)
Blessed by a bitch from a bastard's seed
Pleasure to meet you, but better to bleed
Rise, I'll rise, I'll rise
Skinned her alive, ripped her apart
Scattered her ashes, buried her heart
Rise up above it, high up above it and see
Pray to your god, open your heart
Whatever you do, don't be afraid of the dark
Cover your eyes, the devil's inside
One night of the hunter
One day I will get revenge
One night to remember
One day it'll all just end, oh
Honest to God I'll break your heart
Tear you to pieces and rip you apart
[x4]
One night of the hunter
One day I will get revenge
One night to remember
One day it'll all just end, oh
KINGS AND QUEENS
Into the night
Desperate and broken
The sound of a fight
Father has spoken.
We were the kings and queens of promise
We were the victims of ourselves
Maybe the children of a lesser god
Between heaven and hell,
Heaven and hell.
Into your eyes
Hopeless and taken
We stole our new lives
Through blood and pain
In defense of our dreams
In defense of our dreams
We were the kings and queens of promise
We were the victims of ourselves
Maybe the children of a lesser god
Between heaven and hell,
Heaven and hell.
The age of man is over
A darkness comes at dawn
These lessons that we've learned here
Have only just begun
We were the kings and queens of promise
We were the victims of ourselves
Maybe the children of a lesser god
Between heaven and hell.
We are the kings, we are the queens
We are the kings, we are the queens
THIS IS WAR
A warning to the people, the good and the evil,
This is war.
To the soldier, the civilian, the martyr, the victim,
This is war.
It's the moment of truth, and the moment to lie,
The moment to live and the moment to die,
The moment to fight, the moment to fight
To fight, to fight, to fight!
To the right, to the left, we will fight to the death!
To the edge of the earth,
It's a brave new world from the last to the first
It's a brave new world from the last to the first
To the right, to the left, we will fight to the death!
To the edge of the earth
It's a brave new world, it's a brave new world!
A warning to the prophet, the liar, the honest
This is war.
To the leader, the pariah, the victim, the messiah,
This is war.
It's the moment of truth, and the moment to lie,
The moment to live and the moment to die,
The moment to fight, the moment to fight,
To fight, to fight, to fight!
To the right, to the left, we will fight to the death!
To the edge of the earth,
It's a brave new world from the last to the first
To the right, to the left, we will fight to the death!
To the edge of the earth
It's a brave new world, it's a brave new world!
It's a brave new world!
I do believe in the light, raise your hands into the sky
The fight is done, the war is won, lift your hands toward the sun
Toward the sun
Toward the sun
Toward the sun
The war is won
To the right, to the left, we will fight to the death!
To the edge of the earth,
It's a brave new world from the last to the first
To the right, to the left, we will fight to the death!
To the edge of the earth
It's a brave new world, it's a brave new world!
It's a brave new world!
A brave new world
The war is won
The war is won
A brave new world
100 SUNS
I believe in nothing, not the end and not the start
I believe in nothing, not the earth and not the stars
I believe in nothing, not the day and not the dark
I believe in nothing but the beating of our hearts
I believe in nothing, one hundred suns until we part
I believe in nothing, not in Satan and not in God
I believe in nothing, not in peace and not in war
I believe in nothing but the truth and who we are
HURRICANE
No matter how many times that you told me you wanted to leave
No matter how many breaths that you took, you still couldn't breathe
No matter how many nights that you lie wide awake to the sound of the poison rain
Where did you go? Where did you go? Where did you go?
As days go by, the night's on fire
Tell me would you kill to save a life?
Tell me would you kill to prove you're right?
Crash, crash, burn, let it all burn
This hurricane's chasing us all underground
No matter how many deaths that I die I will never forget
No matter how many lives I live, I will never regret
There is a fire inside and it started a riot about to explode into flames
Where is your god? Where is your god? Where is your god?
Do you really want?
Do you really want me?
Do you really want me dead?
Or alive to torture for my sins?
Do you really want?
Do you really want me?
Do you really want me dead?
Or alive to live a lie?
Tell me would you kill to save a life?
Tell me would you kill to prove you're right?
Crash, crash, burn, let it all burn
This hurricane's chasing us all underground
The promises we made were not enough
The prayers that we prayed were like a drug
The secrets that we sold were never known
The love we had, the love we had, we had to let it go.
Tell me would you kill to save a life?
Tell me would you kill to prove you're right?
Crash, crash, burn, let it all burn
This hurricane's chasing us all underground
Do you really want?
Do you really want me?
Do you really want me dead?
Or alive to torture for my sins?
Do you really want?
Do you really want me?
Do you really want me dead?
Or alive to live a lie?
CLOSER TO THE EDGE
I don't remember the moment I tried to forget
I lost myself, is it better not said
I'm closer to the edge
It was a thousand to one and a million to two
Time to go down in flames and I'm taking you
Closer to the edge
No I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day maybe we'll meet again
No I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day maybe we'll meet again
No no no no
Can you imagine a time when the truth ran free?
The birth of a song, the death of a dream
Closer to the edge
This never ending story
Paid for with pride and fate
We all fall short of glory
Lost in our fate
No I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day maybe we'll meet again
No I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day maybe we'll meet again
No no no no
No I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day maybe we'll meet again
No I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day maybe we'll meet again
No no no no
No no no no
I will never forget
No no
I will never regret
No no
I will live my life
No I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day maybe we'll meet again
No I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day maybe we'll meet again
No no no no
Closer to the edge
Closer to the edge
No no no no
Closer to the edge
Closer to the edge
No no no no
Closer to the edge
VOX POPULI
This is a call to arms, gather soldiers, time to go to war
This is a battle song brothers and sisters: Time to go to war
Did you ever believe?
Were you ever a dreamer?
Ever imagine heart open and free?
Did you ever deny?
Were you ever a traitor?
Ever in love with your blood, lust and need?
This is a call to arms, gather soldiers, time to go to war
This is a battle song brothers and sisters: Time to go to war
Ever want to be free?
Do you even remember?
Want to be God, the devil like me?
Ever want to just stop?
Do you want to surrender?
Or fight for victory?
Here we are at the start
I can feel the beating of our hearts
Here we are at the start
Darkness falls here comes the rain
To wash away the past and the names
Darkness fall here comes the rain
To end it all the blood and the games
Far, far away in a land that time can't change
Long, long ago in a place of hearts and ghosts
Far, far away in a land that time can't change
Long, long ago in a place of hearts and ghosts
This is a call to arms, gather soldiers, time to go to war
This is a battle song brothers and sisters: Time to go to war
Long, long ago
This is a call to arms, gather soldiers, time to go to war
This is a battle song brothers and sisters: Time to go to war
This is a call to arms, we own the night
This is a battle song we own the night
SEARCH AND DESTROY
Grab your gun, time to go to hell
I'm no hero guilty as charged
Search and destroy
Found my faith, living in sin
I'm no Jesus but neither are you my friend
I'm a whore above the broken dreams
This simple answer is never what it seems
A million little pieces we've broken into
A million little pieces I've stolen from you
Search and destroy, search and destroy
Search and destroy, search and destroy
Sold my soul, from heaven into hell
Sick as my secrets, but never gonna tell
Lock the blame, burden of my dreams
Cause of faith in a blessing I believe
I believe
I believe
I believe
Oh, I believe (a million little pieces)
I believe
Search and destroy, search and destroy
Search and destroy, search and destroy
Search and destroy
Let go, let go
Let me go, let me go
Let go, let go
Let me go
Search and destroy (a million little pieces)
A million little pieces
A million little pieces
A million little pieces (search and destroy)
A million little pieces
A million little pieces
A million little pieces
Stolen from you
Search and destroy, search and destroy
Search and destroy, search and destroy
A million little pieces
A million little pieces to start
ALIBI
No warning sign, no alibi
We faded faster than the speed of light
Took our chance, crashed and burned
No we'll never ever learn
I fell apart, but got back up again
And then I fell apart, but got back up again yeah
We both could see crystal clear
That the inevitable end was near
Made our choice, a trial by fire
To battle is the only way we feel... alive
I fell apart, but got back up again
And then I fell apart, but got back up again
And then I fell apart, but got back up again
Way, oh, way, oh
Way, oh, way, oh
Way, oh
So here we are, the witching hour
The quickest tongue to divide and devour
Divide and devour
If I could end the quest for fire,
For truth, for love and my desire
Myself
And I fell apart, but got back up again
Way, oh, way, oh
Way, oh, way, oh
Way, oh, way, oh
Way, oh, way, oh
Way, oh
I fell apart, I fell apart
I fell apart, I fell apart
I fell apart
But got back up again
STRANGER IN A STRANGE LAND
Enemy of mine
I'll fuck you like the devil
Violent inside
Beautiful and evil
I'm a ghost, you're an angel
One and the same
Just remains of an age
Lost in a daydream
What do you see?
If you're looking for Jesus
Then get on your knees
Enemy of mine
I'm just a stranger in a strange land
Running out of time
Better go, go, go
Angel or demon
I gave up my soul
I'm guilty of treason
I've abandoned control
Tonight
The end is coming, everybody run
Now we're gonna live forever, gonna live forever
Tonight, Tonight, Tonight
The end is coming, everybody run
Now we're gonna live forever, gonna live forever
Tonight, Tonight, Tonight
The end is coming, everybody run
Now we're gonna live forever, gonna live forever
Tonight, Tonight, Tonight
The end is coming, everybody run
Now we're gonna live forever, gonna live forever
Tonight, Tonight, Tonight
The end is coming, everybody run
Now we're gonna live forever, gonna live forever
Tonight
Lost in a daydream
What do you see?
If you're looking for Jesus
Get on your knees
Angel or demon
I gave up my soul
I'm guilty of treason
I've abandoned control
Your soul
