The Art of War lyrics

I stand alone

And gaze upon the battlefield

Wasteland

Is all that's left after the fight

And I'm searching a new way to defeat my enemy

Bloodshed

I've seen enough of death and pain

[Pre-chorus 1:]

I will run - they will hunt me in vain

I will hide - they'll be searching

I'll regroup - feign retreat they'll pursue

Coup de grâce I will win but never fight [mercy killing]

That's the Art of War!

Breaking the will to fight among the enemy

Force them to hunt me

They will play my game

And play by my rules

I will be close but still untouchable

No more will I see suffering and pain

They will find me no more

I'll be gone

I will have them surrounded

They will yield without fight overrun

Overrun

Coup de grâce

I will win but never fight

That's the Art of War

Broken and lost

Tired of war

They'll surrender to me

Caught in my trap

There's no way out

Fail never again

[Pre-chorus 1]
