Declarations of War

[Verse 1] In the year of '39, the world stood on the brink, With echoes of a conflict, the nations cannot blink. From the heart of Berlin, a command issued clear, As shadows gathered swiftly, all trembled in fear. "Poland will be ours," the Führer’s voice rang loud, A thunderous declaration, a darkening cloud. In the halls of history, the die had been cast, With a spark igniting, Blitzkrieg unleashed at last. [Chorus] Declarations of war, in the name of the crown, A world torn asunder, nations crumbling down. With fire and fury, the empires will rise, In the wake of destruction, hear the desperate cries! [Verse 2] Across the English Channel, the storm clouds unfurl, As Chamberlain trembles, a call to arms to the world, "France will stand beside us," the Allies unite, Against the forces of darkness, they prepare for the fight. From Moscow to Tokyo, the tension grows high, Each nation at the ready, with a fire in their eye. With every decree, the world shifts its fate, A clash of titans rising, the hour grows late. [Chorus] Declarations of war, in the name of the crown, A world torn asunder, kingdoms tumbling down. With fire and fury, the empires will rise, In the wake of destruction, hear the desperate cries! [Bridge] On the first of September, the sirens began, With the fall of Warsaw, the horrors began. Britain stood steadfast, a beacon of hope, As the bombs fell in London, they learned how to cope. With every new front, the battles would rage, A theater of chaos, penned on history’s page. As borders were shattered, alliances torn, The world plunged in darkness, a new age was born. [Chorus] Declarations of war, in the name of the crown, A world torn asunder, kingdoms tumbling down. With fire and fury, the empires will rise, In the wake of destruction, hear the desperate cries! [Outro] So remember the moment when nations chose sides, When humanity faltered, and compassion divides. In the shadow of banners, the cries of the lost, Declarations of war, we’ll remember the cost! Declarations of war, we’ll remember the cost!
