about

The first song we ever put together. Feels fitting for it to be the second track on the album! This one has been polished, reworked, reorganised, rewritten time and time again and the end product is something we are very proud of! The song is about guns because it is old and that is all you're getting and you will LIKE IT.

lyrics

Bullets flying across the battlefield
No more mercy no one crying to yield
Sorrow shoots through you and blood is left to right
The dead are sleeping through the dead of night

Stomp your feet
Take no defeat
Glory will prevail
Kill millions to save your country
Or kill one and be sent to jail

Pulls the trigger facing death
Wind as chilled as your last breath
A second chooses when you face the light
You cannot take away
That's the glory of the night

Justice absent from this Wartorn path
Taste the freedom of the sin of wrath
Gunfire sets all systems to red alert
And peace is with you when you hit the dirt

Stomp your feet
Take no defeat
Glory will prevail
Kill millions to save your country
Or kill one and be sent to jail

Pulls the trigger facing death
Wind as chilled as your last breath
A second chooses when you face the light
You cannot take away
That's the glory of the night

Steel falls from this blood-soaked sky
The end is here and the final day is nigh
Last man standing fires the final shot
The battles over but the war is not

Stomp your feet
Take no defeat
Glory will prevail
Kill millions to save your country
Or kill one and be sent to jail

Pulls the trigger facing death
Wind as chilled as your last breath
A second chooses when you face the light
You cannot take away
And again
Pulls the trigger facing death
Wind as chilled as your last breath
A second chooses when you face the light
You cannot take away
That's the glory of the night
