Defenders

Album: Maximum Overload (2014)

  • Life's uncertain, a rat-race of pain
    Endlessly searching for more
    Hopeless and needless, held back the chains
    'Till we can't take anymore

    Hold on, Stay strong
    Breaking out from the past life fading
    No more, what for
    All we got is to keep on praying

    Pray for the done for, the lives in dismay
    Witness the final decay
    Suffering in silence for years we were blind
    But now we git something to say

    Hold on, stay strong
    'Till the end a fate of dying
    No more, what for
    Nothing left but to keep on fighting

    United, incited, not misguided
    We'll fight through time before our one true destiny
    Benighted, ignited, still strong and undivided
    This day foretold now here for all to see

    So free in the blue skies with time marches on
    Once more maybe we'll find our peace to behold
    Strangers in a strange world, defenders through time
    Cursed in our kingdom of unholy fire

    Legends of darkness will be on the grave
    Spill their blood under the sun
    Voices are calling with anger and rage
    The final war now has begun

    Hold on, stay strong
    'Till the end a fate of dying
    No more, what for
    Nothing left but to keep on fighting

    United, incited, not misguided
    We'll fight through time before our one true destiny
    Benighted, ignited, still strong and undivided
    This day foretold now here for all to see

    So free in the blue skies with time marches on
    Once more maybe we'll find our peace to behold
    Strangers in a strange world, defenders through time
    Cursed in our kingdom of unholy fire

    Hear our call, save us all
    Standing tall tonight

    The flame will slowly fade away
    The shadows of our lives
    Will ash away the memories
    Before the last sunrise

    We'll keep holding on
    In the sands of changes
    Standing strong against the winds
    Until the end of time

    Hold on, stay strong
    'Till the end, not afraid of dying
    No more, what for
    Nothing left but to keep on fighting

    United, incited, not misguided
    We'll fight through time before our one true destiny
    Benighted, ignited, still strong and undivided
    This day foretold now here for all to see

    So free in the blue skies with time marches on
    Once more maybe we'll find our peace to behold
    Strangers in a strange world, defenders through time
    Cursed in our kingdom of unholy fire

    Hear our call, save us all
    Standing tall tonight
    Hear our call, save us all
    Standing tall tonight Writer/s: FREDERIC LECLERCQ, HERMAN LI, SAM TOTMAN, VADIM PRUZHANOV
