The Art of War

"Sun Tzu said: The art of war is of vital importance to the State. It is a matter of life and death, a road either to safety or to ruin."

Music: Brodén Lyrics: Brodén I stand alone and gaze upon the battlefield Wasteland is all that's left after the fight And now I'm searching a new way to defeat my enemy Bloodshed I've seen enough of death and pain I will run, they will hunt me in vain I will hide, they'll be searching I'll regroup, feign retreat they'll pursue Coup de grâce I will win but never fight That's the Art of War! Breaking the will to fight among the enemy Force them to hunt me they will play my game And play by my rules I will be close but still untouchable No more will I see suffering and pain They will find me no more I'll be gone I will have them surrounded They will yield whitout fight overrun Coup de grâce I will win but never fight Broken and lost Tired of war They'll surrender to me Caught in my trap There's no way out Fail never again never again

Music: Brodén Lyrics: Brodén/Sundström It's under crimson skies hell's horizon Our trap will spring Unaware of our presence they'll be marching Straight to their doom We are prepared for war ready for fire Stand by to charge Counting down as they march into destruction Their time has come They'll never know we give no warning We set a trap they took the bait Leading them straight into hell They will not live to tell the tale We'll strike at dusk and fight 'til dawn Tonight our foe is bound to fail Our time is now all ready at arms Upon our chosen ground dead men marching No sign of hope Victory will be ours before the dawn breaks Tonight we charge Chaos and disorder sound of the attack Charging down the mountain frontal assault Guns light up the darkness mortars rip the ground Like a force of nature shaking the fiield They never knew we gave no warning We set a trap they took the bait Cut off retreat Release Unleash The beast within berserker rage is Released Unleashed A storm a force unbreakable warmachine Victims of the ambush stains the ground with blood Fields of execution murderous plan Soldiers turn to madmen in the dead of night Fighting wih a fury fiery eyes

"Water shapes its course according to the nature of the ground over which it flows; the soldier works out his victory in relation to the foe whom he is facing. Therefore, just as water retains no constant shape, so in warfare there are no constant conditions."

Music: Brodén Lyrics: Brodén/Sundström Hear them whisper voices from the other side Hear them calling Former foes now friends are resting side by side They will never leave our hearts or fade away Live forever They were far to young to die in such a way How many wasted lives? how many dreams did fade away? Broken promises they won't be coming home Oh mothers wipe your tears your sons will rest a million years Found their peace at last as foe turn to friend and forgive And they knew they would die Gallipoli Left their letters in the sand Such waste of life Gallipoli Dreams of freedom turned to dust Hell is waiting where the ocean meets the sand Cliffs of burden Where the soldiers rushed into a certain death At the shoreline blood of heroes stains the land Light a candle One for each of them who fought and died in vain There is no enemy there is no victory Only boys who lost their lives in the sand Young men were sacrificed their names are carved in stone and kept alive And forever we will honour the memory of them And they knew they would die

Music: Brodén Lyrics: Sundström Rise of nations pride Russians on a route to ruin Kreml is more then certain to win Sent away an army to the west Blizzard reigned the ground were chosen Snow was deep and hell were frozen Stalin were too eager to invade He thought of the might he possessed And not of his foe Rage of winter Rise, nations pride Hold whats yours Strike em where it hurts Fight, hold your ground Winter war Reinforce the line Split them into small divisions Rip em of the conquest visions Motti tactics used with great result Snipers move unseen in snowfall Force them to retreat and recall Fight the russian rule and their demand With molotov coctail in hand No fear of their tanks Death or glory A slice of a knife to a throat And their blood turns to ice TALVISOTA!

Music: Brodén Lyrics: Brodén/Sundström Into the motherland the german army march In the soviet union summer 1943 Tanks line up in thousands as far the eye can see Ready for the onslaught ready for the fight Waiting for the axis to march into the trap Mines are placed darkness in the cover of the night Waiting to be triggered when the time is right Imminent invasion imminent attack Once the battle started there's no turning back The end of the third reich draws near It's time has come to an end The end of an era is here It's time to attack Into the motherland the german army march Comrades stand side by side to stop the nazi charge Panzers on russian soil a thunder in the east One million men at war the soviet wrath unleashed Fields of Prokorovka where heat of battle burned Suffered heavy losses and the tide of war was turned Driving back the germans fighting on four fronts Hunt them out of russia out of soviet land Reinforce the frontline force the axis to retreat Send in all the reserves securing their defeat Soldiers of the union broke the citadel Ruins of an army axis rest in hell Oh mother russia union of lands Will of the people strong in command Oh mother russia union of lands Once more victorious the red army stands

Music: Brodén Lyrics: Brodén/Sundström As the turn of the tide it is our turn to rise The force of a union at war March over mountains on our way to the north On the road that will lead us to Rome Our way will not be easy, it will take us through hardship and pain Hill after hill breaking their lines of defence Head on north Mile after mile our march carries on No army may stop our approach Fight side by side many nations unite In the shadow of Monte Cassino We fight and die together as we head for the valley of death Destiny calls we'll not surrender or fail To arms under one banner As a unit we stand and united we fall As one fighting together Bringing an end to the slaughter Winds are changing head on north

Warnings of an airstrike The sirens scream out loud Warnings on the radio Of what's coming Appearing on the radar A threat from overseas Planes on the horizon Cast shadows on the ground Bringers of destruction Are ravaging the land Fury of the bombers A force to reckon with Sets the world on fire Then turns to strike again Flames are burning higher The bombs keep falling AA guns are blazing As the sky is turning red Better run for cover you'll be quick or be dead Burn Burn Rage of the heavens Burn Burn Death from above Die Die Merciless killing Burn Burn Death from above Carpet bombing cities And grinding them to dust Able men and women Will all be victims Everyone will suffer In the wake of their attack Bombers show no mercy A land in ruin Homes are turned to rubble When the airstrike has been approved Facing their destruction Fear the black wings of death Nothing remains Cities ruined turned to dust All has been lost Rise from the ashs and strike
