Cover art for Cry Thunder lyrics by DragonForce

following the theme of a post-apocalyptic world i would say this is a story of how soldiers use to follow the orders of an evil general/commander, but after regretting those days they turn around and fight the evil.

"Time after time, as we march side by side Through the valleys of evil and the torturing souls Night after night, for the glory we fight In the kingdom of madness and the tales from the old"

the soldiers standing strong together following orders in a time of chaos fighting for "glory".

"Death by our hands, for the higher command As the darkness surrounds us in the quiet as they fall Fire burning steel, and the tyrants will kneel Hearts burning stronger with the power of the sword"

This describes the soldiers learning their evil and then turning on their leader and then fighting for good.

"Cry thunder Sword in his hand Titans of justice, fearless we stand Cry thunder Strong in command Savior of nations, freedom of man

Cry thunder Sword in his hand Warriors defending, one final stand Cry thunder Strong in command Blessed by the union, freedom of man"

the first verse describes the warriors gaining revenge on their past leaders who have used them. the second verse describes them defending what they believe in and fighting for humanity.
