Lyrics

Heavy armour fails The battle ground affairs Incitements all around Defeat shows through but no one cares Arrange new attacks Demand a new decree Listen to the ploys Destroy them as they flee Holy to the high masquerade masquerade Fanfares in the sky masquerade masquerade Nurture battle scars Pardon none who dared Kindle and inspire Victory shows you cared Portray amid art Guernica is plaint Metal turning sham But victory is quaint
