The Future of Warfare - History Version
1914
How peculiar, that a single bullet
Can trigger a chain of events
That will change the world forever
Nations will be torn part
Empires will fall
And an entire continent will be set ablaze
In the wake of this event
Alliances are triggered in a chain reaction
Resulting in a war
That sweeps across Europe
Like a merciless plague
Armies will destroy the land
Soldiers dig endless trenches
And the shells will leave scars on earth
For generations to come
We will also see the birth
Of some of the most devastating inventions
Mankind have ever conceived
Born in factories
Delivered by engineers
Immune to bullets of the regular solider
Unbothered by the burdens of the land
The Tank
The Future of Warfare
Standing in the line of fire
32 will lead the way
Coming over trench and wire
Going through the endless grey
A desolate wasteland
Infernal depiction of Hell
The birth of a new way
September 15, 1916
The first wave approaches
At Flers-Courcelette
Through fire and brimstone
Breaking away, coming your way
Standing in the line of fire
32 will lead the way
Coming over trench and wire
Going through the endless grey
Standing in the line of fire
Moving on through the fray
Coming over trench and wire
Live to fight another day
The spell has been broken
A new way to wage war has come
The future of warfare
For all to be seen, 1918
The new world approaches
Villers-Bretonneux
Mechanized warfare
Breaking away, coming your way
Standing in the line of fire
32 will lead the way
Coming over trench and wire
Going through the endless grey
Standing in the line of fire
Moving on through the fray
Coming over trench and wire
Live to fight another day
Standing in the line of fire
Moving on through the fray
Coming over trench and wire
Live to fight another day
Standing in the line of fire
32 will lead the way
Coming over trench and wire
Going through the endless grey
Standing in the line of fire
Moving on through the fray
Coming over trench and wire
Live to fight another day
How peculiar, that a single bullet
Can trigger a chain of events
That will change the world forever
Nations will be torn part
Empires will fall
And an entire continent will be set ablaze
In the wake of this event
Alliances are triggered in a chain reaction

And the shells will leave scars on earth
