Echoes of Strife

[Intro]
[gregorian chanting]
Attende Domine, et miserere, quia peccavimus tibi 

[build Up]

[Verse 1]
War has come, it's time to flee
The walls have fallen, the fight's decree
They fall one by one on the line
Never to feel life's warmth, devoid of nature's shine
This is how it is, again and again
It never stops, it's a relentless chain
The wars of yesterday echos today

[Pre-Chorus]
Now, let us echo the refrain...

[Chorus]
This is the war to end all wars
Until war comes again, to our Shores

[Verse 2]
The cannons fire down the line
Where once was life, now just bone and brine
The soldiers cheer as the mothers mourn
The battle's won, yet more souls are torn
The blood still fresh as they feast on the battle's zeal
The cycle persists, like grinding steel

[Chorus]
This is the war to end all wars
Until war comes again, to our Shores 

[Guitar Solo]

[Breakdown]

[Verse 3]
The fields bare, humanity gone
The shells keep firing, from dusk to dawn
To the cities, to the hills, the hell rages on
Where love and peace once thrived, it's now gone
On and on, the clash continues on and on
Seeking to end, but only to despair.

[Chorus]
This is the war to end all wars
Until war comes again, to our Shores

[Verse 4]
battle is over the fields lay silent
Forgotten are the horrors of war
the fields have flowered once more
Yet beneath the surface, scars remain
A reminder of the pain and the disdain
 
[Bridge]
In the echoes of silence, dread takes hold
From the ashes of strife, a story retold
Across the chasm of time, a cycle unbroken
With each fleeting peace, a harsh word spoken
For in the heart of man, a darkness reigns
And history's lessons, forgotten chains
As we reach for peace, shadows draw near
Whispers of conflict, in every ear
In the depths of our souls, a truth we ignore
That beyond this war, lies another in store


 a darkness reigns
And history's lessons, forgotten chains
As we reach for peace, shadows draw near
Whispers of conflict, in every ear
In the depths of our souls, a truth we ignore
That beyond this war, lies another in store

[Outro]
War's shadow looms, to our shores it returns,
A cycle unbroken, as history churns

[melodic Guitar solo]

This is the war to end all wars

[Breakdown]

[slow down]

[gregorian chanting]
Attende Domine, et miserere, quia peccavimus tibi

[fade]

[end]
