Coda – Riff I
Verse 1
Blackened sky a final flash
Death is in the air
Warriors without a face
Destruction everywhere
Verse 2
Silent falls the hammer
No one hears the cries
No escaping from this hell
Your prayers won’t be heard…..so die!
Verse 3
Brainless cruel commanders
Sending death and pain
Soldiers only robots
Fight for their lives in vain
Chorus
Die now..Die……Warrior
Die now..Die……Warrior
Bridge 1
Somewhere in a shelter sit the men
who hold your fate in their hands
Playin’ chess and you’re the loser
you’re a small pawn in their game
Bridge 2
Somewhere in the shelter sit the men
and they don’t realise
A war without survivors is a fight
that’s never won……so die!
Verse 4
Barren land, desolate waste
Destruction is complete
Survivors creepin’ through the ruins
Decaying flesh and meat
Verse 5
Somewhere in a shelter
Some pigs are still alive
And they still play the game
They don’t give a damn…..so Die!
