Far off on the horizon you can barely see their torches 

But rest assured they're out there and they're coming 

If you listen, the sound is growing nearer of infantry 

Marching out a hypnotizing rhythm 



Destroying every town, light it up and burn it down 

You may not like it now, but this is how the story ends 



Above the ring of clashing steel, they raise flags of war 

A sign to all the warriors who cannot hear 

Amidst smoke of cannonballs, they bang the drums of death 

Pound a cadence out for those who cannot see 



Destroying every town, light it up and burn it down 

You may not like it now, but this is how the story ends 

Poison the wells and scorch the earth, everything's slashed and burnt 

You may not like it now, but this is how the story ends 



Destroying every town, light it up and burn it down 

You may not like it now, but this is how the story ends 

Poison the wells and scorch the earth, everything's slashed and burnt 

You may not like it now, but this is how the story ends
