Written by eddie and Gem [Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] The weight of duty on my shoulders, Marching under foreign banners. They speak of grand ideals and honor, But the truth lies in the clamor. [Chorus] They draw their lines, move pieces on the board, While we are the pawns upon the battlefield, Nameless in their endless horde. They preach of sacrifice, of righteous zeal, But who are they to claim the price we feel? [Hook] who are they? who are they? [Verse 2] I've seen the faces of the fallen, Friends and foes now indistinct. The lines that once divided us, Have blurred, leaving me conflict. [Chorus] They draw their lines, move pieces on the board, While we are the pawns upon the battlefield, Nameless in their endless horde. They preach of sacrifice, of righteous zeal, But who are they to claim the price we feel? [Hook] who are they? who are they? [Instrumental Solo - Building Tension] [Bridge] Just a cog in their machine of war, My voice drowned out by the thunder's roar. Is this the price of their command? A price I never understood nor planned. [Verse 3] The drums beat a steady rhythm, As another dawn breaks red. I tighten my grip on my weapon, Hoping peace can still lie ahead. [Chorus] They draw their lines, move pieces on the board, While we are the pawns upon the battlefield, Nameless in their endless horde. They preach of sacrifice, of righteous zeal, But who are they to claim the price we feel? [Chorus] They draw their lines, move pieces on the board, While we are the pawns upon the battlefield, Nameless in their endless horde. They preach of sacrifice, of righteous zeal, But who are they to claim the price we feel? [Hook] who are they? who are they? [Instrumental Fade Out - Leaving a sense of mystery and unanswered questions] While we bleed …… [End]
