Far off, on the horizon
You can't really see the torches
But rest assure they're out there
And they're coming

If you listen
The sound is growing nearer
An infantry's marching out
On 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 rain of clashing steel
They raise the flags of war
A sign to all the warriors
Who can not hear

In the smoke of cannon balls
They bang the drums of death
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net ]
?
? they can not 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 well and scourges the earth
? slashed and burned
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 well and scourges the earth
? slashed and burned
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends
