This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Every path will lead to war
It's carved in stone, our fate is sealed
Promise that we'll meet again
Just make it cross the battlefield
Everybody bleeds the same
In pitch black darkness, who can tell?
Mooring on through the madness
We buried brothers where they fell
Every path will lead to war
It's carved in stone, our fate is sealed
Promise that we'll meet again
Just make it cross the battlefield
Everybody bleeds the same
In pitch black darkness, who can tell?
Mooring on through the madness
We buried brothers where they fell
A name
A name
A name
I'd give my soul for a name
Something
Something
Something
Let me feel like there's something for me
Just one more hill to climb
Just one last song of glory
You said that we could fight the dawn
Where can we go?
Where can we go?
Where can we go from here but down?
You've cursed us all
Every step a greater lie
And every night the same old dream
Swallowed in a wave of flesh
And nobody can hear me scream
Everybody turned in shame
Don't want to see the house we've built
Peel our skin and stab our eyes
It's all it takes to hide our guilt
A name
A name
A name
I'd give my soul for a name
Something
Something
Something
Let feel like there's something for me
Just one more hill to climb
Just one last song of glory
You said that we could fight the dawn
Where can we go?
Where can we go?
Where can we go from here but down?
You've cursed us all
Just one more hill to climb
Just one last song of glory
You said that we could fight the dawn
Where can we go?
Where can we go?
Where can we go from here but down?
You've cursed us all
It's carved in stone, our fate is sealed
Promise that we'll meet again
Just make it cross the battlefield
Everybody bleeds the same
In pitch black darkness, who can tell?
Mooring on through the madness
We buried brothers where they fell
Every path will lead to war
It's carved in stone, our fate is sealed
Promise that we'll meet again
Just make it cross the battlefield
Everybody bleeds the same
In pitch black darkness, who can tell?
Mooring on through the madness
We buried brothers where they fell
A name
A name
A name
I'd give my soul for a name
Something
Something
Something
Let me feel like there's something for me
Just one more hill to climb
Just one last song of glory
You said that we could fight the dawn
Where can we go?
Where can we go?
Where can we go from here but down?
You've cursed us all
Every step a greater lie
And every night the same old dream
Swallowed in a wave of flesh
And nobody can hear me scream
Everybody turned in shame
Don't want to see the house we've built
Peel our skin and stab our eyes
It's all it takes to hide our guilt
A name
A name
A name
I'd give my soul for a name
Something
Something
Something
Let feel like there's something for me
Just one more hill to climb
Just one last song of glory
You said that we could fight the dawn
Where can we go?
Where can we go?
Where can we go from here but down?
You've cursed us all
Just one more hill to climb
Just one last song of glory
You said that we could fight the dawn
Where can we go?
Where can we go?
Where can we go from here but down?
You've cursed us all
