Gods Of War
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Feelin' like it's all over, feelin' like there's no love
Feelin' like it's not easy, breathin' life in the dust
On a countdown to zero take a ride on the nightmare machine
There ain't gonna be heroes, there ain't gonna be anything
Here it comes, here comes the night
Here it comes, hell in the night
Here it comes, here comes the night
When we all fall down
When we walk into silence, when we shadow the sun
When we surrender to violence, then the damage is done
Put away that gun
I don't wanna be there, I don't wanna be anywhere
Here it comes, here comes the night
Here it comes, hell in the night
Here it comes, here comes the night
That's right
We're fightin' for the gods of war but what the hell we fightin'for
We're fightin' with the gods of war but I'm a rebel
And I ain't gonna fight no more, no way
On a countdown to zero, take a ride on the nightmare machine
There ain't gonna be heroes, there ain't gonna be anything
Here it comes, here comes the night
Here it comes, hell in the night
Here it comes, here comes the night
Don't ya know that's right
We're fightin' for the gods of war but what the hell we fightin'for
We're fightin' with the gods of war
And I ain't gonna fight no more
Stop fightin' for the gods of war
Yeah what the hell we fightin' for
What in the hell we fightin' for
We're fightin' with the gods of war
Heavy
