Lyrics

Chapter III

[Verse]

Attack behind attack

A war behind a war

Wise thoughts to broad horizons

A nation, the very least

[Pre-Chorus]

Such simplicity, advance to find myself

He, he didn't see such simplicity

[Chorus]

Hope is for the loser

Certainty to be

Pleasure of the winner

Certainty to be

[Post-Chorus]

Take now or stay the same!

[Verse]

Attack behind attack

A war behind a war

Wise thoughts to broad horizons

A nation, the very least

[Pre-Chorus]

Such simplicity, advance to find myself

He, he didn't see such simplicity

[Chorus]

Hope is for the loser

Certainty to be

Pleasure of the winner

Certainty to be

[Post-Chorus]

Take now or stay the same!

Take now or stay the same!

Take now or stay the same!
