A granite shell on the open sea appears ripe for the taking
Measly cannons for a hunk of rock with little to no worth
A quick victory will be assured as their strength is broken
A gorge becomes a crater with the right amount of force
Our flag soon rises high over the tainted northern bands
As predicted prior, they were beaten to the punch heavily
Boom!
Bang!
Crash!
Smash!
Thunk!
Silence on the broken heap
Many men leave with their lives as a new fight soon begins
We have unleashed the fiery demons of hell to plague the mortal earth
Our only true comrades will be pain, suffering, loss, all with faint simmers of brotherhood
Although the day is ours, we will soon have to pay for this crime with our courage, our souls and will
