They May Have Won the Battle (But We Have Won the War)

You're willing to walk through flames for a kiss that could kill
You're going to withstand the odds against your kinship
But you're going to admit defeat sooner or later
Because your kinship wasn't made to fight against infinity
Your situation is exactly the same as me
We're both outcasts from the outer society
We refused a life of futileness for an existence of hollowness
We just aren't made for these times

But we can't ally ourselves because our aims are so different
Our targets are the same but our egocentrism prevent us from being friends

And so we depart from our path
We go on our way towards our destruction
We didn't want to live according to their rules but we couldn't make ours
We will never be able to witness the birth of our children
Nor their growth, nor their life, nor their offspring
Because when surviving every day becomes this essential
Who would give birth to living beings?

And we can't ally ourselves because our aims are so different
Our targets are the same but our egocentrism prevent us from being friends

As their legions stomp the ground, crushing us all the way
We think of what we could have done to prevent our demise
As our spirits depart from this hollow existence
I know we'll have plenty of time to discuss in hell
We will be remembered as the manifesto of failure
Generations will come and will be taught not to follow our example
Our name will be forgotten but our bodies will lay unburied
Corrupting the ground of the Earth... we'll have our revenge

And we couldn't ally ourselves because our aims were so different
Our targets were the same but our egocentrism prevented us from being friends

And so we depart from our path
We go on our way towards our destruction
I guess we just wanted to commit suicide
We will never be able to witness the birth of our children
Nor their growth, nor their life, nor their offspring
Because when surviving every day becomes this essential
Who would give birth to living beings?

And we couldn't ally ourselves because our aims were so different
Our targets were the same but our egocentrism prevented us from being friends
