At the Dawn of War Lyrics


As the fog of war subsides

Paint the day in different light

Leave the pain of loss behind

Fade into the night

The morrow comes with no respite

It brings no reason to this plight

Condemned to suffer unjust blight

Salvation out of sight

Forsaken by the gods up high

Witness countless soldiers die

For freedom sounds their battlecry

But the end is nigh

For justice, for freedom, die!

For your home, for your land

Die for your king!

For your people, for your brothers

Die for the gods!

Few survivors to be found

Blood red skies mirror the ground

In silence dying cries resound

A scream without a sound

Another day the fight goes on

A battle lost, a battle won

Tomorrows grim, all hope is gone

The war has just begun

On the brave men march once more

Reminded of the oaths they swore

Ares leads them to the fore

Obey the god of war

The dawn of war, the wake of slaughter

The dawn of war, lamented mourning

The dawn of war unites, resounding battlecries

The dawn of war, by Ares might

My brothers!

Many have died this day, but we must persevere!

Through pain and suffering, we must endure!

We must stand tall in the face of our enemies!

Never retreat! Never surrender!

For justice, for freedom, die!

For your home, for your land

Die for your king!

For your people, for your brothers

Die for the gods!

The dawn of war, the wake of slaughter

The dawn of war, lamented mourning

The dawn of war unites, resounding battlecries

The dawn of war, by Ares might

The dawn of war, the wake of slaughter

The dawn of war, lamented mourning

The dawn of war unites, resounding battlecries

The god of war, leads us to the light
