Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got a long to way to go
And a long memory
I've been searching for an answer
Always just out of reach
Blood on the floor
Sirens repeat
I've been searching for the courage to face my enemies
[Verse 2]
When they turn down the lights
I hear my battle symphony
All the world in front of me
If my armour breaks
I'll fuse it back together
Battle symphony
Please just don't give up on me
And my eyes are wide awake
[Verse 3]
For my battle symphony
For my battle symphony
[Verse 4]
You say that I don't belong
You say that I should retreat
That I'm marching to the rythm of a lonesome defeat
But the sound of your voice
Is the pain in the reverse
No surrender, no illusions
And for better or worse
[Verse 5]
When they turn down the lights
I hear my battle symphony
All the world in front of me
If my armour breaks
I'll fuse it back together
Battle symphony
Please just don't give up on me
And my eyes are wide awake
[Verse 6]
If I fall, get knocked down
Pick myself up off the ground
If I fall, get knocked down
Pick myself up off the ground
[Verse 7]
When they turn down the lights
I hear my battle symphony
All the world in front of me
If my armour breaks
I'll fuse it back together
Battle symphony
Please just don't give up on me
And my eyes are wide awake
[Verse 8]
For my battle symphony
For my battle symphony
