Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Did you ever believe, were you ever a dreamer?
Ever imagine heart open and free?
Did you deny, were you ever a traitor?
Ever in love with your bloodlust and name?
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
Ever wanna be free, do you even remember?
Wanna be God, the Devil like me?
Ever wanna just stop, do you wanna surrender?
Or fight for victory?
[Verse 5]
Here we are at the start
I can feel the beating of our hearts
Here we are at the start
[Verse 6]
Darkness fails, here comes the rain
To  wash away the past and our names
Darkness fails, here comes the rain
To end it all, the blood and the game
[Verse 7]
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
[Verse 8]
This is a call to arms, gather soldiers
Time to go to war (Far, far away)
This is a battle song, brothers and sisters
Time to go to war (Long, long ago)
[Verse 9]
This is a call to arms, gather soldiers
Time to go to war (Far, far away)
This is a battle song, brothers and sisters
Time to go to war
[Verse 10]
This is a call to arms, we own the night
This is a battle song, we own the night
[Verse 11]
Here we are at the start
