Coda - Riff I

Verse 1

Blackened sky a final flash

Death is in the air

Warriors without a face

Destruction everywhere

Verse 2

Silent falls the hammer

No one hears the cries

No escaping from this hell

Your prayers won't be heard.....so die!

Verse 3

Brainless cruel commanders

Sending death and pain

Soldiers only robots

Fight for their lives in vain

Chorus

Die now..Die......Warrior

Die now..Die......Warrior

Bridge 1

Somewhere in a shelter sit the men

who hold your fate in their hands

Playin' chess and you're the loser

you're a small pawn in their game

Bridge 2

Somewhere in the shelter sit the men

and they don't realise

A war without survivors is a fight

that's never won......so die!

Verse 4

Barren land, desolate waste

Destruction is complete

Survivors creepin' through the ruins

Decaying flesh and meat

Verse 5

Somewhere in a shelter

Some pigs are still alive

And they still play the game

They don't give a damn.....so Die!
