Stormtroopers Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Now there's a standstill in the war
Repeating what's been done before
It must come to an end
A few will transcend
They were under twenty five
And under fire they would thrive
The Sturmmann is born
Their enemies scorn
[Pre-Chorus]
A glimpse of the future, new tactics in war
New doctrine in combat explored
As fast as lightning, there's no time to mourn
A glimpse of the future and Blitzkrieg is born
[Chorus]
Strike at zero hour
With overwhelming firepower
They're fueled by the fear in their enemies eyes
It's a shock troop infiltration
A fast and violent escalation
Out of the trenches, the Stormtroopers rise
[Verse 2]
JƤgers led the way
The pioneers would join the fray
Initiative gained
Advancement sustained
Lead through direct command
As they're advancing through the land
Encircling their flanks
And ravage their ranks
[Pre-Chorus]
Expose their reinforcements, destroying their lines
New doctrine in combat aligns
Infantry attacks, exposing the cracks
New combat ideals, on the Kaiserschlacht's fields
[Chorus]
Strike at zero hour
With overwhelming firepower
They're fueled by the fear in their enemies eyes
It's a shock troop infiltration
A fast and violent escalation
Out of the trenches, the Stormtroopers rise
[Pre-Chorus]
A glimpse of the future, new tactics in war
New doctrine in combat explored
As fast as lightning, there's no time to mourn
A glimpse of the future and Blitzkrieg is born
[Chorus]
Strike at zero hour
With overwhelming firepower
They're fueled by the fear in their enemies eyes
It's a shock troop infiltration
A fast and violent escalation
Out of the trenches, the Stormtroopers rise
[Chorus]
Strike at zero hour
With overwhelming firepower
They're fueled by the fear in their enemies eyes
It's a shock troop infiltration
A fast and violent escalation
Out of the trenches, the Stormtroopers rise
Dreadnought Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A shadow moves across the water in pursuit
It splits the waves, commands the sea and defies the wind
Instilling fear among its prey, feels naught for itself
Ahead the sea, lies calm awaitingātheāstorm
[Pre-Chorus]
Displaceāthe water ināits path
Reveal theācannons, align the guns, unleash their wrath
[Chorus]
Unopposed under crimson skies
Immortalized, over time their legend will rise
And their foes can't believe their eyes
Believe their size, as they fall
And the Dreadnoughts dread nothing at all
[Verse 2]
A hull of steel and all big guns to serve the fleet
Unrivalled firepower riding the waves to war
A devastating blow will send their foes down below
Fearless armada now bombarding their shore
[Pre-Chorus]
Light up the night when cannons roar
In fear of nothing, they lead the navy into war
[Chorus]
Unopposed under crimson skies
Immortalized, over time their legend will rise
And their foes can't believe their eyes
Believe their size, as they fall
And the Dreadnoughts dread nothing at all
[Bridge]
The North Sea has drawn them near
The Fleet of the High Seas approach
A contest of titans commence
These days will dictate their fate
The grand fleet prepares their guns
Unleashed as the Dreadnoughts clash at last
[Chorus]
Unopposed under crimson skies
Immortalized, over time their legend will rise
And their foes can't believe their eyes
Believe their size, as they fall
And the Dreadnoughts dread nothing at all
Soldier of Heaven Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I won't be coming home
I won't be going anywhere
I will guard this post forever
Here on the alpine slope, where I did my final stand I shall remain
Among the ice and snow that binds me to this mountain
[Pre-Chorus 1]
A force of nature too strong, sent from above
Where spirits lead the way, the winds will never fade
[Chorus]
White Friday, I'll take the
Stairway to heaven
I'm sky high, when I die
I'll be immortal
Forever, I never
I won't rŠµturn to
Blood mountain, I am the
Soldier of heavŠµn
[Verse 2]
I saw the end of war
I watched the soldiers come and go
And I kept my watch forever
So many brave men fell in the battles that were raging down below
I have seen it all but none will hear my story
[Pre-Chorus 2]
All of these years I have been frozen in time
I cried for spring to come but here, winter remain
[Chorus]
White Friday, I'll take the
Stairway to heaven
I'm sky high, when I die
I'll be immortal
Forever, I never
I won't return to
Blood mountain, I am the
Soldier of heaven
[Pre-Chorus 3]
I always dreamed that I would, serve high above
Where spirits lead the way, the winds will never fade
[Chorus]
White Friday, I'll take the
Stairway to heaven
I'm sky high, when I die
I'll be immortal
Forever, I never
I won't return to
Blood mountain, I am the
Soldier of heaven
[Chorus]
White Friday, I'll take the
Stairway to heaven
I'm sky high, when I die
I'll be immortal
Forever, I never
I won't return to
Blood mountain, I am the
Soldier of heaven
Hellfighters Lyrics
[Verse 1]
From a land across the ocean
To the western front where they served
Fought with courage and devotion
Preconceptions turned
As the spring offensive kept churning
Where the men would earn their name
See the tides of battle turning
And their foes ignite their flame
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the toll of the bell
Kept fighting for 6 months in hell
As the war rages on
They fight at the edge of the Argonne
[Chorus]
Hear the toll of the bell
Over 6 months in hell
Out of the trenches they came
As the war rages on
At the edge of the Argonne
Hellfighters earning their name
[Verse 2]
They would have no prisoners taken
And they never lost any ground
Earned the cross of war unshaken
Never turned around
As the armistice is drawing closer
The 369th
Kept on fighting until it was over
And they were first to reach the Rhine
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the toll of the bell
Kept fighting for 6 months in hell
As the war rages on
They fight at the edge of the Argonne
[Chorus]
Hear the toll of the bell
Over 6 months in hell
Out of the trenches they came
As the war rages on
At the edge of the Argonne
Hellfighters earning their name
[Instrumental break]
[Chorus]
Hear the toll of the bell
Over 6 months in hell
Out of the trenches they came
As the war rages on
At the edge of the Argonne
Hellfighters earning their name
Christmas Truce Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Silence
Oh, I remember the silence
On a cold winter day
After many months on the battlefield
And we were used to the violence
Then all the cannons went silent
And the snow fell
Voices sang to meāfromānoāman's land
[Pre-Chorus 1]
We areāall
We are all
Weāare all
We are all friends
[Chorus]
And today we're all brothers
Tonight we're all friŠµnds
A moment of peace in a war that nŠµver ends
Today we're all brothers
We drink and unite
Now Christmas has arrived and the snow turns the ground white
[Post-Chorus]
Hear carols from the trenches
We sing O Holy Night
Our guns laid to rest among snowflakes
A Christmas in the trenches
A Christmas on the front far from home
[Verse 2]
Madness
(Madness)
Oh, I remember the sadness
(Sadness)
We were hiding our tears
(Hiding our tears)
In a foreign land where we faced our fears
(Faced our fears)
We were soldiers
(Soldiers)
Carried the war on our shoulders
(Shoulders)
For our nations
(Nations)
Is that why we bury our friends?
(Bury our friends)
[Pre-Chorus 2]
We were all
We were all
We were all
We were all friends
(Yes, we were friends)
[Chorus]
And today we're all brothers
Tonight we're all friends
A moment of peace in a war that never ends
Today we're all brothers
We drink and unite
Now Christmas has arrived and the snow turns the ground white
[Post-Chorus]
Hear carols from the trenches
We sing O Holy Night
Our guns laid to rest among snowflakes
A Christmas in the trenches
A Christmas on the front far from home
[Pre-Chorus 2]
We were all
We were all
We were all
We were all friends
(Yes, we were friends)
[Chorus]
And today we're all brothers
Tonight we're all friends
A moment of peace in a war that never ends
Today we're all brothers
We drink and unite
Now Christmas has arrived and the snow turns the ground white
[Outro]
A Christmas on the frontline
We walk among our friends
We don't think about tomorrow
The battle will commence
When we celebrated Christmas
We thought about our friends
Those who never made it home
When the battle had commenced
Versailles Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The war had been raging and ravaging for four years
Leaving millions of casualties from all sides
In the trenches of the frontline
People have asked the question:
What is the price of peace?
How many more must die?
Exactly five years after the assassination of Franz Ferdinand
Germany is forced to sign an unconditional surrender
For the signing of this historical document
The French city of Versailles is chosen
[Chorus]
Signed a treaty to change the world
TŠµnsions fall and the peace unfurlŠµd
Nothing like what had come before
It's the deal, it's the treaty that will end the war
Signed a treaty to change the world
Tensions fall and a peace is unfurled
Nothing like what had come before
It's the deal, it's the treaty that will end the war
[Verse 2]
A fragile but hopeful peace falls upon the European continent
America returns to their shores
Russia tend to their own matters
And the British Empire disbands their colonial forces
Parades are being held in victorious countries
The war that would end all wars is over
But not everyone agrees
In the underground, something is growing in the dark
Because for some, the war never ended
War will never entirely die
It will evolve, it will change
And war will return
Sooner than we think
[Chorus]
Signed a treaty to change the world
Tensions fall and a peace is unfurled
Nothing like what had come before
It's the deal, it's the treaty that will end the war
Signed a treaty to change the world
Tensions fall and a peace is unfurled
Nothing like what had come before
It's the deal, it's the treaty that will end the war
[Instrumental break]
[Bridge]
From a shot that would change the world
Tensions rise and a war is unfurled
Nothing like what had come before
It's the war that will end all war
From a shot that would change the world
Tensions rise and a war is unfurled
Nothing like what had come before
It's the war that will end all war
[Outro]
Will this war really end all wars?
Can a war really end all war?
Will this war bring another war?
It's the war that will end all wars
Will this war really end all wars?
Can a war really end all war?
Will this war bring another war?
It's the war that will end all wars
Will this war really end all wars?
Can a war really end all war?
Will this war bring another war?
It's the war that will end all wars
Will this war really end all wars?
Can a war really end all war?
Will this war bring another war?
It's the war that will end all wars
