Die by the Sword lyrics

The world around us, frozen in terror

The balance of power, a thing of the past

Anything human has been abandoned

We're just drowning souls in a river of blood

What was built up in thousands of years

In just a moment is destroyed

Have we lost all compassion and love

Cast our souls into the void

If you live by the sword - you will die by the sword

If you live by the sword - you will die by the sword

We're sinking deeper in a world of darkness

It's kill or be killed from the day we are born

We're an evil seed from the soul of a serpent

An evil breed in a valley of thorns

What was built up in thousands of years

In just a moment is destroyed

Have we lost all compassion and love

Cast our souls into the void

If you live by the sword - you will die by the sword

If you live by the sword - you will die by the sword

Blood and vengeance, iron and bone

Fallen warriors, carved in stone

Crush this mindless desire for blood

And stop this endless crusade

Conquer our instincts and lay down the steel

Save our children from the blade

If you live by the sword - you will die by the sword

If you live by the sword - you will die by the sword
