lyrics

My brothers
Will you fight beside me
Will you raise your fists up high
And will you enter
The kingdom of redemption
As we take this fight to the sky

This is not a call to arms
I won't bleed you dry
If you fight for my life
But when steel hits steel
And you realise
There’s no turning back
This is destruction by design

The life of a chosen one
Born from a bleeding gun
He waits for the day to come
But the day can not be won
A light that blinds his eyes
From the chaos that ensues
Unspoken genocide
As the spark that lights the fuse.

Now the days they grow much longer
How the light it blinds my eyes
A man lays dead by the hands of the leviathan
A rusty blade to shed the husk of its skin
We die!

With our backs against the wall
He’ll be the one to save us all
With our backs against the wall
No fear of death until we fall

We won't stall
We will stand to keep the dark away
Live! Fight! Fall! Die!
Blinded by victories of yesterday
We won't stall
We will stand to keep the dark away
Live! Fight! Fall! Die!
Destruction by design is the only way

The life of a chosen one
Born from a bleeding gun
He waits for the day to come
But the day can not be won
Centuries from now
They’ll praise our names in song
Stand by your brothers side
For your legend will live on

Oh the days they grow much longer
How long before the final die is cast?
Tear the flesh from the husks of mighty warriors
See how the fallen weep with fear
They, die!

With our backs against the wall
He’ll be the one to save us all
With our backs against the wall
No fear of death until we fall

We won't stall
We will stand to keep the dark away
Live! Fight! Fall! Die!
Blinded by victories of yesterday
We won't stall
We will stand to keep the dark away
Live! Fight! Fall! Die!
Destruction by design is the only way
We won't stall
We will stand to keep the dark away
Live! Fight! Fall! Die!
Blinded by victories of yesterday
We won't stall
We will stand to keep the dark away
Live! Fight! Fall! Die!
Destruction by design is the only way

With our backs against the wall
He’ll be the one to save us all
With our backs against the wall
No fear of death until we fall

We won't stall
We will stand to keep the dark away
Live! Fight! Fall! Die!
Blinded by victories of yesterday
We won't stall
We will stand to keep the dark away
Live! Fight! Fall! Die!
Destruction by design is the only way
We won't stall
We will stand to keep the dark away
Live! Fight! Fall! Die!
Blinded by victories of yesterday
We won't stall
We will stand to keep the dark away
Live! Fight! Fall! Die!
Destruction by design is the only way

This is not a call to arms
I won't bleed you dry
If you fight for my life
But when steel hits steel
And you realise
There’s no turning back
This is destruction by design.
