How the Story Ends Lyrics
Far off, on the horizon
You can barely see the torches
But rest assure they're out there
And they're coming
If you listen
The sound is growing nearer
Of infantry marching out
Of hypnotizing rhythm
Destroying every town
Light it up and burn it down
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends
Above the rain of clashing steel
They raise the flags of war
A sign to all the warriors
Who can not hear
Amidst smoke of cannon balls
They bang the drums of death
A battle cadence out for those
Who can not see
Destroying every town
Light it up and burn it down
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends
Poison the well and scorch the earth
Everything slashed and burned
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends
Destroying every town
Light it up and burn it down
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends
Poison the well and scorch the earth
Everything slashed and burned
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends
You can barely see the torches
But rest assure they're out there
And they're coming
The sound is growing nearer
Of infantry marching out
Of hypnotizing rhythm
Light it up and burn it down
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends
They raise the flags of war
A sign to all the warriors
Who can not hear
They bang the drums of death
A battle cadence out for those
Who can not see
Light it up and burn it down
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends
Everything slashed and burned
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends
Light it up and burn it down
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends
Everything slashed and burned
You may not like it now
But this is how the story ends

Has my favorite solo in the album, fucking great song too.
This song is about sun tzu's book the art of war, specifically on the chapter on generallship and how to lead your troops
riff lord rules
Kick ass song, one of the best on Endgame in my opinion!
A general or soldier is confident that his army will win a bloody conflict which will take place. They will play their battle tune, knowing they will slaughter the enemy.
