Warfare lyrics

An ember growing into a blaze Ambition sparking in the hearts of kings Machinery lurking and clanking with zero remorse Self-preservation at any cost Ages come, ages go Vanity lives on Ages come, ages go Cruelty seeks prey Throwing innocence into the fray Ages come, ages go Cruelty seeks prey Never letting go Fear begets rage Reaping what we sow Rage begets warfare Fighting for domain War begets death Harvesting the pain Death begets nothing Human empires constructed on the blood of the slain Nations rise, nations fall Vanity lives on Nations rise, nations fall Cruelty seeks prey Never letting go Fear begets rage Reaping what we sow Rage begets warfare Fighting for domain War begets death Harvesting the pain Death begets nothing Away with the sword Arise with the plow The stench of battle forever quelled
