Drifting across currents
From oceans to oceans
Remnants of war.
Drunk on Confession
High on Calamity
Make yourself immortal.
Poison the clouds, poison the water
Watch people collapsing
From metal dragons in the sky.
Flushed from Blazes
Deaf from Explosions
You’re the cause of war.
Low on empathy
Empty on repentance
Deception built on misconception.
In a world full of peace they’ll come and hunt you
But during catastrophe, you’ll be our hero.
You're a man of war.

Drifting across currents
From oceans to oceans
Remnants of war.
Drunk on Confession
High on Calamity
Make yourself immortal.
Poison the clouds, poison the water
Watch people collapsing
From metal dragons in the sky.
Flushed from Blazes
Deaf from Explosions
You’re the cause of war.
Low on empathy
Empty on repentance
Deception built on misconception.
In a world full of peace they’ll come and hunt you
But during catastrophe, you’ll be our hero.
You're a man of war.
