Gladiators

We could always be the villains

You know there’s always a good reason

No, life isn't fair,

No, life isn’t fair

Oh, but do you see it, see the vision

A future different than what was written?

Something’s in the air,

Something’s in the air

When a battle hymn becomes a battle cry,

Will you let it in or let it pass you by?

Know something’s gotta give, but please don’t let it die

(Huh)

Today we are the gladiators,

Tonight, we face the king

Coming from a land of myths & fables,

Stories that we sing

And we don’t need a savior (huh)

We know what we’re fighting for

Yeah, they might win the battle later

But we’ll win the war

Yeah, we’ll win the war

We’ll win the war

It won’t always be this distant

A shining city on the horizon

I can see it there,

I can see it there

But if tomorrow never finds us,

Who knows what stories will survive us?

Mm, the legacies we’ll leave behind us

They’ll turn to gold, they’ll call us Midas

When a battle hymn becomes a battle cry,

Will you let it in or let it pass you by?

Know something’s gotta give, but please don’t let it die

(Huh)

Today we are the gladiators,

Tonight, we face the king

Coming from a land of myths & fables,

Stories that we sing

And we don’t need a savior (no)

We know what we’re fighting for

Yeah, they might win the battle later

But we’ll win the war

Yeah, we’ll win the war

We’ll win the war

Open up your eyes,

See the city walls

How the mighty live,

How the mighty fall

Now, it is the time,

Time to hear the call

How the mighty live,

How the mighty fall

Today we are the gladiators,

Tonight, we face the king

Coming from a land of myths & fables,

Stories that we sing (stories that we sing),

And we don’t need a savior (no)

We know what we’re fighting for

Yeah, they might win the battle later

But we’ll win the war

Yeah, we’ll win the war

We could always be the villains
