In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
We have to find a better way
Out of this tragedy
As the battle rages on
Blood stains the ground we're on
My ears hear only screams
Brave soldiers are dying
One spartan stands alone and shouts
This war is ours.
This war is ours!
Yes, I will see you
Through the smoke and flames
On the front lines of war
We have to find a better way
And I will stand my ground until the end
Till we conquer them all
We have to find a better way.
Through the fire and the flames
A sea of dead drives men insane
We march the fight into the cold
This is as far as it will go
The battle ends on top of here
This is where we conquer fear
On blackout armed with our swords
This war is ours.
Yeah.
This war is ours.
Yes, I will see you
Through the smoke and flames
On the front lines of war
We have to find a better way
And I will stand my ground until the end
Till we conquer them all
We have to find a better way.
Till we conquer them all
We have to find a better way.
Till we conquer them all!
Yes I will meet you.
Through the smoke and flames
On the front lines of war
And I will stand my ground until the end
Till we conquer them all.
We will conquer them all
We will conquer them all
We will conquer them all
This war is ours!
Yeah!
This war is ours!
Yes, I will see you
Through the smoke and flames
On the front lines of war
And I will stand my ground until the end
Till we conquer them all
So I will fight my battle till I fall
And I conquer them all
Till we conquer them all
War! [Repeat: x7]
Go, yeah!
This is war!
War! [Repeat: x7]
This is war!
Out of this tragedy
As the battle rages on
Blood stains the ground we're on
My ears hear only screams
Brave soldiers are dying
One spartan stands alone and shouts
This war is ours.
This war is ours!
Yes, I will see you
Through the smoke and flames
On the front lines of war
We have to find a better way
And I will stand my ground until the end
Till we conquer them all
We have to find a better way.
Through the fire and the flames
A sea of dead drives men insane
We march the fight into the cold
This is as far as it will go
The battle ends on top of here
This is where we conquer fear
On blackout armed with our swords
This war is ours.
Yeah.
This war is ours.
Yes, I will see you
Through the smoke and flames
On the front lines of war
We have to find a better way
And I will stand my ground until the end
Till we conquer them all
We have to find a better way.
Till we conquer them all
We have to find a better way.
Till we conquer them all!
Yes I will meet you.
Through the smoke and flames
On the front lines of war
And I will stand my ground until the end
Till we conquer them all.
We will conquer them all
We will conquer them all
We will conquer them all
This war is ours!
Yeah!
This war is ours!
Yes, I will see you
Through the smoke and flames
On the front lines of war
And I will stand my ground until the end
Till we conquer them all
So I will fight my battle till I fall
And I conquer them all
Till we conquer them all
War! [Repeat: x7]
Go, yeah!
This is war!
War! [Repeat: x7]
This is war!

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
