Battle Cry Lyrics

Into darkness our descending
Searching for a time never ending
Still I promise to continue
Trying to see the good left within you

There's a battle cry on the battlefield
Now that you and I have our hearts revealed
How many times must the blood thieves
Drink us dry?

Back and forth the titans turn their
World to ashes, lightning crashes
Searchers through a grand illusion
Numbers falling, mass confusion
One by one by one

In a violence of pretending
It's hard to know which side you're defending
Still I know you must continue
Trying to win a war waged within you

There's a battle cry on the battlefield
Now that you and I have our hearts revealed
How many times must the blood thieves
Drink us dry?

Back and forth the titans turn their
World to ashes, lightning crashes once upon a
Midnight's turning
Nightmares march on, dreams still burning
One by one by one

There's a battle cry on the battlefield
Now that you and I have our hearts revealed
How many times must the blood thieves
Drink us dry?

Into darkness our descending
Searching for a time never ending
Still I promise to continue
Trying to see the good left within you

There's a battle cry on the battlefield
Now that you and I have our hearts revealed
How many times must the blood thieves
Drink us dry?

Back and forth the titans turn their
World to ashes, lightning crashes
Searchers through a grand illusion
Numbers falling, mass confusion
One by one by one

In a violence of pretending
It's hard to know which side you're defending
Still I know you must continue
Trying to win a war waged within you

There's a battle cry on the battlefield
Now that you and I have our hearts revealed
How many times must the blood thieves
Drink us dry?

Back and forth the titans turn their
World to ashes, lightning crashes once upon a
Midnight's turning
Nightmares march on, dreams still burning
One by one by one

There's a battle cry on the battlefield
Now that you and I have our hearts revealed
How many times must the blood thieves
Drink us dry?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I'm going to take a stab at this one. It sounds like it's about a relationship between two people where everything is completely insane, like they always go from loving each other to hating each others guts, and in the chorus he's asking how much longer it's going to go on.
